Abstract
The research aims to analyze some biomechanical variables of the jump shot skill from different areas in basketball, with and without the presence of a defender, for the youth category. The descriptive method was used in a survey study. The performance of the jump shot was applied by one of the youth players from three different areas (center, left, and right) inside and outside the restricted area, as well as beyond the three-point arc, with two conditions: once without a defender and once with a defender. Several shooting attempts were made for each area, and the most accurate successful attempt was used for analysis. The findings concluded that the center of mass (COM) height during preparation was higher, and the knee and hip joint angles during preparation were greater when a defender was present compared to when there was no defender. Additionally, the elbow and wrist angles at the moment of ball release were greater in the jump shot when a defender was present. The maximum COM height was lower, and the ball release and entry angles were smaller when a defender was present compared to when there was no defender.
