catch and shoot
Receive and fire
Catch and shoot describes a basketball play where a player receives a pass and immediately releases a shot without dribbling or hesitation.
The phrase often functions as a compound modifier: a catch-and-shoot three-pointer, a catch-and-shoot player.
The technique requires quick release and reliable accuracy, distinguishing shooters who create their own shots from those who depend on teammates to get them open.
