THE HOOK PASS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO LEARN

The hook pass is a skill needed to play vs good players in competitive games.  I have seen that the vast majority of HS guards don’t have this skill. To properly do a hook pass keep the ball at shoulder level, elbows extended outward to ensure the balance of the ball. Begin lifting the ball together with two hands, making the wrist of your right-hand flip. Bring the other arm above your head along with the ball. When your arm is extended totally, throw the ball by flicking your wrist outward. This will lead to your teammates getting open looks at the basket.
