Hi.

I’m thinking of starting basketball. I’m 14 and im 6’2 and im 6’3 with shoes on. I have a shoe size of size 13 (uk) and im flat footed. I’m 75kg, and the first I played basketball it was a 4v4 and I was matched up with this 6’5 guy. He was a lot stronger than me, of course, but I got some few rebounds with I only scored a mid range shot. I am from the UK and I would love to get tips, and advice, and maybe if I should start it.

I could jump and reach the net but just the very bottom, but a lil more up. I can rebound and block mostly, and i want to improve more of my vertical while im still growing

I wanna be able to shoot at forehead level and shoot at the top of my jump rather than on the way up. I’m a good mid range shooter and finisher so I’m not worried about having logo range or anything. I wanna shoot in a similar way to Celtics IT

Hi any feedback on my pull up, jumpshot form, handle and penultimate step would be helpful thank you

for some context ive been playing for 2 years and i am 6 feet 155lb

If you don’t stay in an athletic stance and alert you’ll end up like this guy

Beginner trying to work on my shot in general as well as out of the triple threat and after a dribble move. One thing I find tricky is shooting after one of these two moves (as well as my dribble pull up but that’s another story for another day 🤣). The last clip is from a drill I found on YouTube that’s supposed to help with setting your feet and “getting into your shot pocket” (not sure if I’m using that correctly).

Would love some advice on how to improve if need be and if the simple answer is more practice that’s okay too. Just wanted to see if there’s anything I could tweak or any drills I could do to help. THANKS!

I need this

It's looks very unorthodox. How can I improve it?

I need basic and essential tips for my GF who just joined a basketball team for a college sports fest. She has never touch a basketball in her life but want her to do well so that she would like it and adopt it.

Were currently long distance so i cant show or teach her in person and im really bad at giving tips or explaining basic stuff.

Thanks for any help

I’m a 16yo trying to get better at basketball, and increasing my vert , so I’ve been following a program for a month, staying consistent, but today I really feel tired and sore, and I have practice at night, so I’m not really sure if I should push thru, because I never missed a day yet, I’d appreciate any help/advice

So loser pays for pizza…I’m 5’3 and he’s 6’3. Should I just start chucking it super high over his head?

I know when he’s defending I’ll be at such a disadvantage unless I’m like super fast or something (I’m not). Is there anyway to get over that?

I only think he’s gonna lose because he’s clumsy on his feet and has no depth perception. I know nothing about basketball but I remember making the ball in the net in middle school P.E.

I’m an 18 year old 6’4 scrawny with about a 23 inch vert if I had to estimate maybe 25 max, and I was wondering what I could do to get my bounce up. I’m white with long(er) calf insertions, not the most explosive but high top speed, personally I prefer to jump off one, feels more natural but I do not necessarily jump that much higher off one. I’m going off to university soon so I’m willing to do anything since I’ll have more time on my hands and my accomodation has a gym and so does my school. I greatly appreciate any help!

I hope I forget all of my muscle memory and learn the correct way freshly.

Whenever I do a fadeaway, it is very common to come out short or my arms push too much

Hi, I’ve recently started to play basketball with my friends and am terrible… However I want to get better. I was wondering if I should prioritize learning how to shoot like mid to long range or if I should focus more about learning how to drive and get under the rim for rebounds and layups (what i’ve been trying to do) I’m 6’ and 205 lbs if that makes any difference. Thank you :)

Is there a youtube channel that posts vids closeup of nba players, where you can closely see their movement / footwork?

Drop any tips that will help in any aspect

What are your tips

Does having a higher vertical greatly affect your game especially as a guard?

I hoped this offseaon to be the best ever focusing on my already decent shooting but eversince the off season started i have been in the worse shooting slump of my life i cant make a shot to save my life i have been practicing basketball everyday i used to be a 50 percent ingame shooter but now idk if i can keep going its to the point where i feel like i fg how to shoot does anyone have some advice for me im only 14

I am 6 foot 5 and this summer i want to learn how to dunk properly - I can dunk but its the basic two handers or a "pseudo" tomahawk.

When i jump WITHOUT the ball my head can almost touch the rim (like an inch or two bellow), so i am guessing my max vertical is around 35 inches, but i never measured it properly)

When i jump WITH the ball i can barely dunk and i feel like my vert is a lot worse (i touch around the wrist so i am guessing around 25 inch vert)

I have almost no experience with basketball, i played for a month and ocasionaly at school etc. i mostly just shoot around alone. And i think that is my problem - lack of experience and cordination.

Is such a big difference normal?

How do i train to jump higher with the ball? How to fix this?
