Answer 2

I am a shooting coach from Maryland. The simplest advice for shooters to remember is "lift and freeze." Lift means to get your elbow above your eyebrow in your follow through to get the necessary arc on your shot. Freeze means to hold your follow through up and still until the ball hits the basket.
You would be surprised how many players miss shots because they do not do these two simple things, mostly missing short. The most common reason for missing long is that the shooter lifts the ball too close to the face.
I hope you shoot the ball purely one-handed. If not, that takes more work to fix. I work with players who struggle with that and I think it is the most common shooting flaw in America on scholastic levels.
