Pass Out of Shot
Try passing out of your shot by pressing the shoot
X
button, then pressing the pass
A
button while on your way up. NOTE You MUST roll your finger from the shoot button
over to the pass button to execute this move – if you release your finger from the shoot
button, the shot will be released before you can pass the ball.
If you can draw an extra defender
to you by initiating a jump shot,
passing out of your shot to the
open man is extremely effective
way of exploiting the defense.

Touch Passing
Pass
A
the ball to your teammate. Then before he receives the ball, tap the pass button
again to execute a touch pass to the next player you want to pass to. Touch passing is a
useful technique for those who can quickly anticipate where they want the ball to go to
next.
Clearing Out
After you grab a rebound, if you repeatedly press the
B
button BEFORE YOU LAND,
you will “clear out” defenders around you. This is a good way of protecting the ball from
defenders trying to swipe at the ball as you land.
