Austin's shooting form looks really odd to me. He uses both hands, rather than shooting with one dominant hand and using the other to position the ball. He seems to start with the ball really low, near his chest, and he falls backwards on the release. He also seems to keep his lower body square to the basket but then kick his right leg forwards as he elevates.
No one can question his shot's effectiveness - he's shooting 40% from three on the year. I've watched the UNC game winner at least 50 times and it goes in every time
. But I'm still curious if anyone else has noticed this and knows if the coaching staff is doing anything about changing it. It seems odd to me that a coach's son would have such unconventional form. Do we even have a "shooting form" coach? We seemed to leave Scheyer alone with his quirky sidespin shot, despite how streaky he was.
