People ask me all the time for some more basic basketball tips than the more advanced stuff that I usually post on my youtube channel so this week I had to answer those calls and release a video regarding what truly are the most important things in this game which are basketball fundamentals.
Many players know how to layup but never really took the time to break down what makes a layup soft, and why you should jump off of the correct foot, etc. So that's another reason I decided to make this tutorial. If you are struggling and don't know how to layup with left hand then I strongly suggest you take the principles taught in this video, apply them to your left hand, and then go to the gym and just get as many reps as you can with your left. That's what I did and I can still remember the very first time I made a left handed layup that felt natural.
Watching these videos and soaking up all of my basketball tips is not enough. You need to actually apply these tips to your game to become better and make sure you are always practicing basketball fundamentals as those are going to take you the furthest in this game.
This Video Covers The Following Topics:
"basketball tips", "basketball tips on layups", "basketball tips for beginners", "basketball fundamentals", "basketball fundamentals layup", "how to layup in basketball", "how to layup", "how to layup with left hand", "how to layup in traffic", "layup", "layup drills", "layup moves", "layup tutorial", "basketball layup", "basketball layup moves", "basketball layup techniques", "basketball layup tutorial", "basketball layup tips" "baller boot camp" "Augie Johnston"

tnx ı'm missing a lot of open layups
Now u won't :)
And my dribbling Ive watched your videos I need a consistent drill i need to make this bball team
I love how everyone is like OH MY GOD LAYUPS ARE THE HARDEST THING EVER actually they are really easy if you actually practice and have a good coach or trainer👍
Nancy Kajo my couch is not.
what song is in your intro i really like it
when I steal the ball and I am on a fast break should I slow down when I go for my lay up or just speed up and aim for the right square
Full speed, but on your two steps you get to use for the layup slam the breaks on.
can u plz post more vids
got it bro......i tried it but .....always it becomes 3 steps .....😢😢😢 .....what should i do
when i do a left hand layup its left hand and left foot is there anyway to fix this
Yeah it takes practice.
Baller Boot Camp Whenever I blow past a defender (who's taller than me), I try and do a reverse layup, but when I do that I have to do an underhand layup or else he'll block it. And when I do that, instead of hitting the backboard soft, it hits it hard as if I were intending to smash the ball on it. Please help!
how tall r u man....really wat is ur height??
I'm 6'2"
i am a football(soccer) player and im currently playing basketball, and the hardest thing i find is layups, it just feels weird when i do layups
+Henry Chung I come from playing rugby and I feel the same as you. The rest of it came pretty alright, but layups? Nah.
ikr, i have a bigger chance of scoring a 3-pointer than a layup
HorsemanUnknown lol
+Henry Chung I just suck at layups during games. idk i play soccer only but when I played basketball, everything is easy except getting a layup during an actual match
I have been playing basketball for a week and layups are the worst for me I literally hate layups 😂
I cant stop throwing bricks when doing layups 😭
he hit them folks on 1:03
hahaha

Basketball Fundamentals - How To Layup, Things You Never Thought Of Before
So which layup is better and the most accurate, the finger roll or the over hand layup? I'm using the over hand layup, but my coach wants me to do the finger roll.
Toby Shum it depends on the situation ..
K.A. L.S. Thanks a lot!
I just true out for my school basketball team. I made it and I learned how to do a layup in one day.
+Baller Boot Camp I want to ask something...let's just say I am dribling towards the basket. What is it allowed :
1. I drible once, make one step, hold the ball with two arms, then make two steps and lay-up.
2. I drible once, hold the ball with two arms and then make two steps and lay-up.
Can I do both or that one step I make before holding the ball with both arms in case 1 counts as one step and I have only one left afterwards?....what I mean is...when do I start counting the two steps I am allowed to make?...do I count after my last drible (bounch of the ball to the floor) or after I hold the ball with both arms?
I joined the basketball team today and I had my first practice today :D fun but exhausting
Do we fucking look like we care?
Watch yor language bruh..
Don Bautista That was so mean
***** :c
awesome ! Good luck :)
You have no idea how much this had helped me. My coach is really strict and I couldn't do a good layup until this video. I almost got kicked off the team! You are a life-saver!
Hey I'm glad I can help...If you want to give back share the video on FB and Twitter.
Damm
If I extend my arm too long then i put too much power and ball just bounces off the back board
Kelly Manuel same 😭
MarshyGaming same
Same problem dude
Garry Del rio Shoot upward
Bounce it off the backboard at the top of your ark
Thank you so much for this video! I'm on two basketball teams but on one of them the whole team is boys and I'm the only girl and I needed this video because they make us do layups.
I can shoot 3s better than I can lay up. Any advice? I find it difficult to shoot in the key or anywhere close to the ring. I often throw it too strong or just in bad angle. I tried shooting ot at the top right it doesn't work for me.
Chris G same with me...
Same
Just flick the wrist
Don't shoot layups. Pass it around to your team.
Fuck it u got the free ball just try taking it in anyway adleast u will get to the line a lot.
I cannot do a layup in practice whatsoever.
You have to practice. Just keep working on it.
Krista D I can't either
Baller Boot Camp im left handed, I only do layup with left hand how can I work out with my weak hand? both layup and dribble (right hand)
+Xavier Pawa I know this comment wasn't meant for me but in practice they have us putting our hand behind our backs and doing our weak hand. Then walking into a layup, then eventually running into a layup still keeping your hand behind your back. Then start all over again but using both hands. Trust me I still am not great with my left hand but its so much better, and I have been using it in games and I feel confident about using my left hand when needed.
The string from elbow to leg metaphor really helped me. I do better once I can use references and visual representations.
thanm you bro. Im really bad in shooting layup, but im good shooting 3 points. Btw, i watching all your tutorial vids everyday!
I can shoot a layup but I can't master the correct power
Now, i can did lay up. Thanks, bro!
Im a weird situation. I'm in an adult league and bball was never my sport, I was a quarterback all my life. I accel in shooting and defense. However for some reason I struggle with the layup. I always go for the top right corner but recently noticed that most layups made don't hit the right corner. Including your example here. It hits about the middle. Should I start hitting the middle? If ao it seems like it would be more accurate when using your example. (I know u said right corner but I'm going off of what u actually did)
It's good to hit the right corner if the angle is correct too. You must also hit the board with the ball in the top of its way in the air so that it can produce a soft bounce back inside into the rim, Aaron.
I don't know how to do an layup is very hard
its hard for me to layup since im small and the hoop is really tall, what do i do?
Smish Smosh Chicken Nugget same problem...
Scorchアート hit puberty
fuck you i'm 50
IM NOT EVEN 5 FEET
FastFood Clerk shoot 3s
have u ever heard or know superhandles...(just trying to see whether u know him or not no offence...but if u know him....u should challenge him one on one to see who is the best among the best of u two
I know of him...and I am open to play anyone 1 on 1.
this is my first ever time playing basketball for a real team, my try outs is on monday and im so nervous! i dont really play basketball too much but i wanna learn how to play
Wow, very useful tips, never knew this. Cant wait for next week video to learn more things from you.
Thanks Raw Fan...
Raw Fan t

:O 666 comments. I comment this because i want it to be 667
Thank you so much, it helped me alot. Gotta share it with mah friends!
Thanks! That's great. The more the merrier!
Thx
You're welcome Sam :)
thanks it was very helpful but how long did it take you t learn how to do layups and to get them in every time
You can do it less than a year with constant practice. Even within just a month. :)
Im 16 and have been jumping of the wrong foot when doing a lay up and i had no idea till now and im having difficulties jumping off the correct foot any advice??
Layup ryt hand use ryt foot. Layup left hand use left foot. The opposite foot will be the last foot to take off the ground.
Does this apply to left -handed players?
Yes. All drills do
@BALLERBOOTCAMP. COM.....
I won't a question about this.... How To spin move and Dribble counter
Another nice one Baller Boot Camp, if you have one that implements the dribble technique combined into the Layup drive in that would be cool. I'm currently working on a good Layup playlist for our Basketball Skillz community and yours here will fit it perfectly, and basically looking to curate that one if you have it or plan to work it in on your awesome channel.
If so, it would surely be cool bro. Thanks for sharing your skills, many players worldwide shall benefit for sure!
I replayed it and saw the dribble my bad, it was very quick though, maybe I missed it the first time I watched, anyhow if you put a slow mo in it I think folks will surely get the timing of the dribble and steps needed to get the foot positioning down properly. I like to freeze frame my moves it helps for sure! still awesome info and correct way to perform a basic fundament layup.
Thanks for the share and the love...
No probs you're doing a great thing for the basketball community worldwide. I wish more ballers, and coaches took the time to do the same. In due time I guess :) we need more folks doing what's right for the youth today for sure, and also for us older folks who need to stay in good shape.
Great video really gave me a little more knowledge on layups thanks man
No problem, thanks for watching and sharing
Np any tips on how to rebound better
Conor Gordon
Not yet, but soon enough :)
Ok
"Hit the backboard at the top of the arch of the layup."
Great tip. Thanks.
My coach says i have to go left right left or right left right and its so frustrating i suck at layups🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Can you make a fadeaway video
Yeah that's a great idea.
If ur watching this video of how to do a layup YOUR SAD DONT EVEN PLAY BASKETBALL LMAOO
i'm having problem with..............fast running and dribdling..........Help please!!!
Thank you so much I'm 14 year old I'm just starting playing basketball
Techniques for different skills:
Dribbling- Technique 1-You want with dribble the ball with your hand above it.Also you should only use your fingertips. (push it down using fingertips)if you use your palm your dribble will be very slow. This will be helpful as you are not breaking rules. Technique 2- dribble with the ball low, eyes up at all times as well as to keep a good centre of gravity.Technique 3- Have your feet shoulder width apart. This will help you with balance.
Shooting- Technique 1- You need to work on your follow through with your fingers. You need to flick your wrist and your fingers. Also keep a straight arm this will help with consistency because you know that the ball will go the same distance because your arm length aint changing. Technique 2- If you right handed, your right hand must be inline of the inside of your right leg.Technique 3- Have a ball dip , before you shoot put the ball down to about thigh level so when you come back up you have a lot of momentum to have a successful shot.
Lay ups- Technique 1 - When you do a right handed lay up you need to lift of with your left foot. Vice versa. This is for balance and height to jump over defenders. Technique 2- Take only two steps when doing a layup, make sure you extend your arm so you do not miss and so no one can block defend the ball when you do a lay up shot. Technique 3 , cam at a diagonal angle so it is easy. You should only have a small amount of power when the ball hits the backboard if not the ball would just bounce of hard and not go in. Also you want to hit the top right or top left of the box.
Baller Boot Camp I struggle with layups sometimes and this video really helped!!! Thanks!!!
Is that him rapping at the end?
Nah i think its a kanye west song
+Shawn Curry Hell no
Tomorrow is my exam on lay-up, and I'm forced to do a finger roll lay-up ==". But actually can i use an "over-hand lay-up" instead of "finger-roll lay-up" in a real match? Help coach!
I have been lifting my left leg a whole year.. I'm right handed.. My coach just started to scold me.. It's actually hard lifting my right leg up...
This better work. I missed 10 layups in ONE GAME!!!!
My problem is when I drive, I instinctively lead with my right foot, but it takes me three steps to get close enough to lay it in so I end up going, right (pick up), left, right and shooting with my right instead of left (pick up), right, left and shooting with my right.
Guess it's just a case of more practice.
Do you have any videos on moving off the ball on offense?
I can layup with my right hand easy but I struggle with the left do you have any tips?
Sure! This compilation of videos are all for layup mastery: ballerbootcamp.com/how-to-shoot-a-basketball-layup-and-3-drills-to-improve/Ponder from it bro. keep it up!
Thanks a lot,But the link doesn't seem to be working?
That's it: ballerbootcamp.com/how-to-shoot-a-basketball-layup-and-3-drills-to-improve/
I've unintentionally attatched the word "ponder" to the link LOL. sorry my bad
Coach I'm right handed in basketball and a few months back I started practicing left hand layups, and for some reason I flick my wrist on my left handed layups putting extra spin on the ball. I miss more left than right hand layups, probably most likely since I'm a righty, but I was wondering if you thought it might also be because of the way I take those layups. Maybe this habit originated because I aimed for the middle of the square and not the left corner, so I had to flick for backspin so it wouldn't go too far? Idk but please, tell me if I should change the way I take my left hand layups. Thanks in advance.
I am 14 and my height is 5'9, I can't layup perfectly. Every time I layup the ball goes higher
I just noticed theirs a lot of 12-14 year olds in the comments all i have to say is dont buy those over priced gear they aren't. worth it. Just focus on shooting,dribbling,ect. Good luck.
I'm 12 and started basketball at high school really helpful - from London btw not america
I will be telling my daughter this today at Basketball practice.
Thank you
For example, what if I perform a layup using my left hand while jumping with my left leg, is it considered a foul if playing In a competition?
Thanks for the refresher, really need it after leaving basketball for over 2 years!
Same

Thanks that was helpful I 18 years old and I never did it right but now I'm getting better

i have good ball handling when i practice but when i play a game i suck. also the ball handles i practice like crossover and between the legs dont always work ;( help
Coach,can you explain what is the real way to layup?Does it is some hand some leg layup or right hand left leg?

👇👇🧡
had basketball tryouts today. I'm garbage. I don't even know how to shoot a layup
let me explain to u what happend to me, i need help with this because i know how to dribble, its like a professor that misses the shots. I legit cant score jump shots, layups i barely can dunk so i miss almost all the time.
im 13 and joining the basketball team, the layup is the one that always fails me to do, my height has nothing to do with it plus Im a girl, what should I do?
+Baller Boot Camp can you teach me how to lay up with an underhand finish or finger roll??
Augie Johnston I can make a right hand lay up but not consistently I really need help basketball tryouts is a week away i need you badly
Missed an open layup got the rebound missed got the rebound again and missed. Here I am.
i started shooting really bad but i didnt miss any layups , this video really helped , thanks!
My lay ups are usually too hard and I didn't realize it until I saw this video. Thanks!
I'm gonna share this with my friends tomorrow at basketball training
i can only jump off my right foot cause i got used to that plus im more of an advanced player meaning i got handles and shoot preety well and my game is good im also one of the best players in my grade but i jump off the right foot everytime i do a layup and it doesn't bother me i make though
Wow thats cool. Try practicing the other foot. When u become pro u need it.
This ain't the kind of Lay Up I look up to Dude so it probably won't help ya'll
I like the part where he's like" shoot in the right angle...its...geometry its angles" idk why i laugh at this
