Coach Dan Speaks:

Basketball players need to perfect the power step middle hook shot if they want to be competitive on the basketball court. To practice this move, basketball players should start on one block with their back towards the basket and then flick the basketball up to themselves. On the catch of the basketball, they should take a power step towards the middle and attempt a hook shot making sure to keep their eyes up and have their arms higher than their waist while they move. If basketball players engage in this drill often they are sure to master it in no time.
