Skills - Step Back Jumper

Very handy move which many see in the higher leagues but the degree of difficulty is high. It takes a lot of energy and concentration to execute successfully. Its a great move to create space when the clock is running down, and only when the clock is running out in my book as its such a difficult shot and realistically if you wanted this shot, you could get it at anytime so save it for desperate cases. You need to be low so you can explode and shoot over the defender who is clearly pressuring you if this shot is necessary. Make sure you put the ball up as you are falling back you need to make sure you compensate for this falling and make really do concentrate and follow through. You have got to be moving and agile for this move to be most successful and to give you a solid clean look at the basket, and the best chance to make the shot. This can be executed from the in or outside the arch. Have plenty of practice before you think about using this shot in a game  or your coach mite sub you out if you miss.
