Power layup, also called jump stop layup, is a continuous shooting move in which a player stops dribbling and makes a huge leap forward(jump stop), while securing the ball in both hands from the dribbling hand, then making a layup. The move is generally used as a layup because the huge movement coming from the leap provides the momentum for the player to jump forward for a layup. The move is a great way to squeeze the player under the basket for a fast layup.
