In each of the five years included in the analysis, the regression line of the plot showed slightly negative correlation between “length” and free throw shooting percentages, meaning that in general the lesser a player’s length was, generally the better free throw shooter they were. Data was only used for players who shot 25 or more free throw attempts in their 500 or more minutes on the floor to filter out unreliably small sample sizes. When comparing shooting ability between players, the most equitable comparison is free throw shooting, where the distance and undefended nature of the shot remains constant, so the difficulty of the shot does not vary. Though it has been proved that in broad terms a jump shot with more arc will more often go in the hoop, and a player with longer arms could generate more power into a shot, shooting is all about accuracy not distance all about muscle memory and repeating a motion that works, which physically speaking is easier to do when the motion is quicker and more condensed, giving shorter armed players an advantage. In golf, longer arms and thus a “longer swing” can more easily lead to less control of where the ball will be hit due to the idea that the more parts and pieces there are to a swing, the more that can go wrong, thus a more condense swing is more consistent and reliable.
However, the logic still applies and follows such that a player with longer arms and a longer swing might be able to hit the ball with more power, yet have less control than a player with a shorter swing and wingspan.
