hookshot
One-handed arc shot
A hookshot is a one-handed basketball shot made with a sweeping arm motion, the ball released in an arc over the shooter's head while the body shields the defender.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's skyhook was the most famous and unstoppable version.
In video games, particularly the Legend of Zelda series, a hookshot is a grappling device that fires a chain to pull the user toward distant objects or enemies toward the user.
