5 shooting drills to become a better basketball player
In this week's video, Coach Zack Fields takes you through a great individual workout with 5 shooting drills to elevate your game to the next level.
Plus, if you watch the video through to the end, he also shares a bonus free throw conditioning drill to help you master what's often the deciding factor in close games.
Here's some of what you'll learn from Coach Fields:
- Why the final dribble before your jump shot is so important (And how most players get it wrong)
- How to properly use your footwork to sweep by your defender into your jump shot
- A unique "4 by 7" drill that helps you practice getting to your spots on the floor
- How to shoot off both the front and back pivot (most players miss critical opportunities by only being good at one of them)
- And a whole lot more!
These 5 shooting drills seem so simple, but if you practice them religiously and give maximum effort (just watch Coach Fields for inspiration!), then you'll be amazed at how quickly you can increase your shooting percentage and confidence.
The best part?
All you need is a basketball, a hoop, and something resembling a defender (like a cone or a chair) to implement every single one of these drills-it couldn't be easier!
