The next drill we'll discuss is off the dribble jump shooting. And, what it is, is like we talked before, when you take jab steps, before you dribble to fake off your defender and take the jump shot, as simple as that. Like if you want to go right, you can fake left, dribble, plant your feet, take the shot, like we discussed. Everything we discussed before comes in play. Proper stance, hand position, bent knees, ball rotation, all of that. And, even if you're dribbling, you find your spot, take your shot, be it left or right. You can go left. It's a basic jump shot just coming off the dribble, instead of being stationary, o.k. You can take different moves even if you want to cross over, you can beat your defender, then you come, always plant your feet and make sure you're balanced before you release your shot, make sure you're balanced, you're in position, and then take your shot. I'll show you one more time. And, that's the off the dribble jump shot.
