Coach Dan Speaks:

Basketball players of all levels can benefit from learning how to take a pull up jump shot from the elbow. Not only is this an efficient way to score, but it is also a great basketball drill to develop basketball skills such as handle, balance, and jump shot mechanics. To practice this technique start at the top of the key with one dribble before attacking the elbow with a quick jump shot. To reinforce muscle memory make sure to alternate sides on each shot. With enough focused practice basketball players will be ready to make quick shots on the court!
