Coach Ethan Khoza warns that a common training mistake is practicing only front-facing (straight-on) shots. He advises shooters to mix in catch-and-shoot reps from varied passing angles—especially side passes—so they can handle ball rotation in game situations and become adaptable, high-level shooters.

One of the biggest mistakes you can make in your training is to only work on shots coming from a front facing angle. Even if you're really, really good at hitting threes from a straight on pass, eventually the defense is going to take that away and you're going to have to be able to make shots coming from different passing angles. If you still want to be an effective shooter, be sure to mix in catch and shoot shots where you're working on handling that rotation of getting a side pass so that when you find yourself in these situations in games, you're prepared to do it. This is how you become an adaptable high level shooter who can thrive in any situation.
