A management and sales professional within
the shipping and transportation industry, Craig Raucher has worked in an
executive capacity for companies that ship freight via rail, ocean, and air.
Outside of work, Craig Raucher is the
commissioner of the Brooklyn/Staten Island Athletic Basketball League, and he
has participated in pickup basketball games with friends twice a week since
1985. When scoring points, basketball players frequently use the following
types of shots to put the ball into the hoop.
Jump shot: Players can attempt a jump shot
in most game circumstances, including while the player is moving and while
covered by the opposing team’s defense. A jump shot, usually made some distance
from the hoop, is performed when a player jumps upward with both feet, aligns
his elbow with the hoop, and shoots the ball into the basket at an arc.
Lay-up: A lay-up is typically used when a
player nears the basket and is not crowded by the opposing team’s defence. To
shoot a lay-up, a player dribbles to the side of a basket and propels himself
upward using one foot before shooting the ball off the backboard and into the
hoop.
Free throw: Free throws are unimpeded shots
made when a foul is called on the opposing team. The player who was fouled
stands above the free throw line and bends at the knees, releasing the ball
from both hands as he comes up on his toes.
