Abstract

     The three-point shot skill in basketball is one of the thrilling shots that attract millions of fans as it is performed outside of the 6.75 m arc to increase the result by three points. Hence, any failure in performing it will greatly affect the result of the game. Such a skill needs highly sophisticated training to get better results. The aim of this study is to identify biomechanical variables enabling to extract qualitative exercises of the three-point shot in basketball and to design qualitative exercises in the light of those variables. The descriptive method will be carried out by applying biomechanical analysis of the 1st ranked player in the NBA league in the three-point shot skill in 2020/2021 by a shot rate of 47.5% using the Motion Track analysis program and building and scheming qualitative exercises (physical, technical exercises, and techno-physical exercises) of the skill according to the analysis outputs. The obtained results showed that biomechanical variables depend on time distribution to performance stages; horizontal and vertical distances of the body's center of gravity, right-hand palm, and the ball path; angular change of elbow, shoulder, and knee joints, and the amount of force of the body's center of gravity and arms. Furthermore, qualitative exercises designed for the three-point shot according to such biomechanical variables are jumping over hurdles with legs straight; bending at knees and jumping up with lifting weight; stretching and bending arms upward and inward with dumbbells; pushing a medicine ball upward and forward with jumping; bending and stretch arms upward and forward with dumbbells; shooting from outside the arc with body weights; shooting from outside the arc; angle of shooting; ball path; angle of shooting and ball path and deep jump from the top of the box.
