How Do You Throw An Alley-Oop Pass In Basketball?
This is an acquired skill with a fantastic finish. The alley-oop is all about timing and eye contact. Find somebody who has the vertical leap to dunk easily. Or find a basket that allows you to adjust the height of the rim. Decide you’re going to throw the alley-oop before you get to the three-point arch. Make eye contact with your partner who has the hops. Toss the ball toward the basket with a shot-like motion – soft and with an arch – when your teammate is two or three steps away from jumping. Aim for a spot barely above the rim, and to the side that your teammate is approaching from. Watch as your teammate chocks up an assist for you with a thundering dunk.
