It depends if you're going for a long shot with power or a short shot with power. I'm going to assume you're going for the long shots. Take about 5 steps back at a 7 o clock aâ¦ngle to the ball. Take 3 quick, tiny steps then take a really fast run up.
Analyze Your Grip. Your fingers need to be spread apart enough to balance the basketball in just one hand, and the ball should sit right on your finger pads.

Your elbow needs to be right under the ball, and your shooting hand needs to be in direct line to the rim. The ball needs to stay in front of you and should not go behind your head at all. Your body should release all with the shot: your legs, your core, and your arm all coordinated with one graceful movement.
