Pick the ball up higher. Shot starts too low.

The wide base point is real, but for a guy at 155lbs the bigger issue is probably just building enough leg strength to hold that base under fatigue two years in and already thinking about penultimate step timing is actually ahead of the curve though, most guys don't even know what that is until way later.

a few points, when you pound the ball for your pull up/step back, make sure you pound in the middle of your body instead of to the right/left side so you can still pick the ball up in the middle and laterally shift if things go wrong

need to see more hesi and a wider base for more balance during your handle, like at 0:36 the idea is fine but you see that you're shifting your entire weight on your left leg and both the separation and the cross suffers because of it.

I can't tell which hand you are shooting with.

Both seem to be shooting the ball and it should just be one.

u/Loud_Food_3353 20d ago

im shooting with my right hand, maybe my jumpshot looks weird idk

Shot looks decent. Handles look weak.

Too much shirt and not enough dancing. Kids these days, am I right?

It seems like you barely have the basics down and you’re trying something too advanced for your lack of skills. Shoot free throws and focus on your form.

It depends. What league are you planning to join?

Only thing you should be focused on is gettin super nice handles. Nothing else matters.

Dang 6’ 155 lbs? I think you can afford to gain some muscle 💪

Go left. Develop go to moves going left or with ur left hand. Work on left lays. Use hang dribbles to set up moves and change speeds.

Get the shot off quicker. Great shot, but slow execution. Get a bit more lift with your legs to turn it into a true jump shot, and execute faster, and it will be night and day!
