Abstract

The problem of this research is the low ability of jump shoot, owned by basketball athletes of Sport Science Faculty of Padang State University. Therefore, some factors that affect the ability of jump shoot of basketball athletes were investigated. In this research, the researcher found the factor of balance and explosive power of leg muscle toward the jump shoot ability on basketball athlete at Sport Science Faculty of Padang State University. The type of the research is correlational. The population and the sample of this research are the basketball athletes at Sport Science Faculty of Padang State University. Then, the data of this research was analyzed by using product moment correlation. The results of this study are: (1) there are contributions of explosive power of the leg muscles toward the jump shoot ability of the basketball athletes at Sport Science Faculty of Padang State University r = 0.92. (2) there is contribution of balance toward the jump shoot ability of basketball athletes at Sport Science Faculty of Padang State University r = 0.90. (3) there is simultaneous contribution of the power of the leg muscles and balance toward the ability of jump shoot of the athletes at Sport Science Faculty of Padang State University r = 0.87. Based on the result of this research, it can be concluded that there is a significant contribution from the balance of explosive power of leg muscle toward the basketball athletes’ ability of jump shoot at Sport Science Faculty of Padang State University.
