A jump shot takes time & practice to perfect. Depending on your age and current skill-level, there are a variety of methods to enhance your precision. Any player can warm-up by shooting at layup range without jumping - simply bending the knees and lifting your arc up so the ball goes into the basket - ideally without touching the rim or backboard. You can use only one hand once this is mastered and continue stepping out further as you get in rhythm. Neglecting this very basic warm-up is often a reason for poor, inaccurate shooting...and the secret to fluid, accurate shots is solid form through basic repetitions and fundamentals.
