Abstract:
This is a basketball training device for a user's guide hand comprising upper arm, pivot, forearm, thumb, and finger components. The pivot component is pivotably connected to the upper arm component and rigidly coupled to the forearm component, and the forearm component is rigidly coupled to both the thumb component and the finger component. The upper arm, forearm, thumb, and finger components are each secured to the user's upper arm, forearm, thumb, and at least one finger, respectively. As such, the basketball training device not only restricts flexion and opposition of the thumb but it restricts pronation of the user's forearm. In addition, the basketball training device restricts flexion, extension, radial deviation, and ulnar deviation of the user's wrist while allowing the user appropriate extension at the elbow joint during the entire shooting motion.

Claim (Index 3):
The basketball training device of  claim 1  further comprising:\n a finger component comprising at least one finger strap through-slot and a finger attachment point; \n a finger strap attached to said at least one finger strap through-slot, said finger strap securing said finger component to at least one of a user's fingers; \n said forearm component further comprising a second distal forearm attachment point; and \n a third elongated coupling member formed from a rigid material, said third elongated coupling member comprising a third distal end and a third proximal end, said third distal end attached to said finger attachment point and said third proximal end attached to said second distal forearm attachment point; \n whereby said upper arm component is secured to the user's upper arm, said pivot component is pivotably connected to said upper arm component, said pivot component is coupled to said forearm component by way of said first elongated coupling member, said forearm component is secured to said user's forearm, said forearm component is coupled to said thumb component by way of said second elongated coupling member, said thumb component is secured to said user's thumb, said finger component is coupled to said forearm component by way of said third elongated coupling member, and said finger component is secured to said at least one of the user's fingers.
