or left side and lay it up with one hand. The hand you lay it up with depends on

Hook Shot
This type of shot is more difficult to do. You are shooting the ball in a hook motion. First, you have to have your back towards the net and just have your outer hand on the
basketball. Then, you are going to swing towards the basket and with the ball in
a hook motion. You may have to practice this type of shot for awhile to get the
hang of it.

Alley Oop
This is another advance type of shot. You have to be able to dunk for an alley hoop. Another player on your team throws the ball up in the air near the basket and you jump in the air to catch
it. When you catch it you make a slam dunk in the process. You see this sometimes during NBA games.
