and today we are going to learn Dirk Nowitzki’s deadly fadeaway. Dirk Nowitzki kind of revolutionized
the way the big man is looked at in the NBA. A seven footer that can shoot from the outside
and shoot over just about anybody. But besides his size he uses a couple tricks to help him
get this fadeaway off uncontested every time. So let’s take a look at it. Although it helps
to be tall smaller players can effectively use this move as well. It is all about creating
separation from your defender. Most of the time Dirk begins his fadeaway with a backdown.
He keeps his left shoulder to the defender and his right hand dribbling the basketball.
Dirk then times it to when he initiates contact he begins his spin move and drops his right
foot deep into his defenders territory. This will put your defender out of position and
many times it will be hard for them to jump to contest your shot. Dirk then fades off
of his left foot making it that much harder to block then extends his knees so that the
defender can’t get close ehough to block his shot. Check out how even though he is fading
away he keeps a perfect 90 degrees in his shooting elbow. Dirk also moves his set point
of his shot above his head now he just has to find his target and knock it down. So remember
all you have to do is move your shot set point a little bit higher above your head. Your
gonna want to fadeaway from the defender and you are going to want to lock your eyes on
the rim as quick as you possibly can. And also try to put a little extra power into
the shot because you are fading away you are going to need it. Most people miss their fadeaway
short. If you love this video and want to show some support just give a like, comment, or subscribe.

Very cool
I'm relying on this shot to save me in my games.
Go Mavs
This isn't enough info that follows..well, they're just luring the viewers to advertisements..and when people click the advertisements while watching their videos then that money for them..this is business in youtube not basketball
I keep losing power 🙁
Isn't this a travel since he's leaving his pivot foot? I don't think so, but in the step through video, you're telling us that you have to jump off both feet, when in fact you can leave your pivot foot as long as it doesn't land before you release the ball… please comment.
This works for smaller players too I use it against smaller PGs
I used this to score game winner thanks for the help
how to improve the weakness hand and pipen steal technique ?
I use the fadeaway at 0:24 seconds in the video. I'm not sure if it is a travel or not because im quite new to basketball. How could it be a travel if im not careful?
Very little info on dirk. Mostly a sales pitch.
I was wondering if you could make a video on how to use your body when driving to the rim like Lebron
can u do. layup
I've been practicing that shot since I was a kid and I perfected it
I do this naturally
when i play basletball, somebody tells me, my fadeaway shot looks like dirk. Because my foot is just like dirk always do. As i experience with it, it helos you to take more balance on your shot it is not just to make space from your opponent but it helps you to shoot more and accurate
Coach, i have a hard time raising my set point for post shots. Any tips?
whats the song at 0:30
I tried this at practise ( I didnt know what I was doing ) but then my whole team got in a discussion about how to do this and now Im gonna be DEADLY in the post
reverse layup plz…
omfg what was that first part
my god a 1 minute tutorial video that teached me yrs of practice im 15 5'7 wow I can now shred the fade aways easy, can even tilt others lol
Dirk Nowitzki has been my favorite player for years and ive mastered all his shots too
Also, try to make sure you're fading away in a straight line to the basket, that way you only have to worry about missing left or right, only long or short.
So which foot is the pivot foot??
That intro lol
