ABSTRACT:
An aiming device to assist in basketball shooting practice, comprised of an elastic cord, fasteners at both ends of the cord for detachably fastening the ends of the line to the hoop of a basketball goal, so that the line spans the hoop opening and lies in the plane of the circle defined by the hoop, and a visible aiming target mounted on the line and centered on the axis of the hoop, whereby a ball will pass unimpeded, through the rim, but will deflect the target so as to provide feedback to the player as to how to improve his shooting. The target is rotatably held on the line and is preferably a hollow, brightly colored plastic ball through which the line is passed.
