What is a "layup"?
A layup is a basic basketball move where a player runs or moves close to the basket and gently places the ball into it, usually by bouncing it off the backboard. It is one of the simplest ways to score in basketball and is often done during fast movements or when the player is not heavily guarded. The player usually jumps close to the hoop while releasing the ball in a smooth motion to make the shot. It requires good timing, accuracy, and coordination.
