In the early years, many people thought that the standard action of shooting was the only one, which was the shooting hand with an empty palm. But in fact, shooting can be divided into three hand styles: soft hand, hard hand, and medium hard hand in between. Each of the three hand styles has its own advantages and disadvantages, and each has its own NBA master to use.
The first is the soft hand, represented by Nash °, Maddie, Curry and many more
This shooting hand type, based on the premise of relaxing the palm and wrist, the five fingers are naturally bent, and when the ball is plucked, it gives the ball more and faster rotation and better fit, and the hand shape is still bent after the shot, this hand type is relative to the traditional empty hand type, because the relaxed state will not be empty-handed, and the hand and the ball fit better, so the whole palm can give the ball more power space.
In the picture below, you can see the details of Curry's full-palm plucking shot with his full palm and full palm against the basketball
And Curry himself has too many fans of traditional theories, so in his shooting teaching video, he once mentioned that his hand shape was wrong. But if you really think that the top active NBA shooter who can throw 97 balls at different points with 100 three-pointers is shooting with the wrong hand, then you're ridiculous.
