How to generate power for a fadeaway jump shot?

People who often play basketball will particularly like the fadeaway jump shot. For example, many well-known basketball stars look very handsome in this shooting posture. The fadeaway jump shot has a big advantage, which is that it can avoid being blocked by defensive players. However, the fadeaway jump shot is also a relatively difficult move on the basketball court. When practicing the fadeaway jump shot, the most important thing is to master the correct method of exerting force.

How to generate power for a fadeaway jump shot?

1. The backward jump actually involves a backward jump. It is not a real vertical jump and then a backward jump. You will know this after watching the video. However, some of Joe's shots did involve vertical jumps, which should be attributed to his amazing coordination. At the same time, you should pay attention to the stable backward jump and jump up by leaning back slightly. If you lean back and then jump up in order to avoid the opponent, your action will be ugly and you will become a laughing stock. It is certain that you have to jump high. If you don't jump high enough, you can just fall back and shoot.

2. After jumping, use your waist muscles to exert force, lean your body backward, and make full use of your waist and abdominal strength and coordination to throw the ball. Contract your abdominal muscles instantly before throwing the ball. At this time, you need to use some force with your forearm when throwing the ball, and the arc should not be too high. Those with good wrist strength can directly rely entirely on wrist strength to make a move. Young people often have trouble shooting because of insufficient finger and wrist strength. In fact, shooting mainly depends on wrist strength. It is recommended to develop wrist and finger strength first and then practice jump shots.

The fadeaway jump shot is not as complicated as you might think.

Before taking off, lean your center of gravity forward, support yourself with the balls of your feet (right foot slightly in front), bend your body, and bend your legs.

At the moment of jumping, the center of gravity moves rapidly backward, the front of the foot pushes backward, and the body is pulled backward.

Note that it is best to have one foot in front and one foot behind so that it is easier to maintain balance.

The reason why you cannot lean your body backward is because you have not moved your center of gravity backward. This requires a backward leaning movement from the head to the waist at the moment of taking off.

A fadeaway jump shot is not about jumping and then fading away, but about completing the fadeaway movement at the moment of jumping!

The fadeaway jump shot is an important technique, generally used at closer distances (such as turning around and shooting after reaching the basket). If the distance is far, use technical moves such as dribbling, squeezing, leaning, forcing, and turning to force the opponent to the vicinity of the three-second zone, waiting for an opportunity to fade away and jump shot. The fadeaway jump shot, when combined with other techniques such as turning around, breaking through, stepping back, and fake moves, is very effective.

Jump shot is a basic technique in basketball and the most commonly used means of scoring. The fadeaway jump shot is a technique that allows you to shoot even when being closely defended. The reason why a star is a star is that you can rely on him when no one else can make a breakthrough. Facing an iron wall of defense, the fadeaway jump shot is the most classic way to force a shot. If you practice the fadeaway jump shot well, you will have an additional very useful weapon. Think about the many scoring masters, who doesn’t use this weapon? Kobe, McGrady, AI, KG, and Novi Driver all use fadeaway jump shots.

Everyone knows that excellent centers have the highest shooting percentages, and Yao Ming's 55% is far beyond the reach of guards. An excellent guard like Jordan has a fadeaway jump shot success rate of over 45% or even close to 50%.

The scoring efficiency of swingmen is still the highest. If you can master the fadeaway jump shot with a 40% hit rate, you will definitely be a star on the court.
