Abstract
A device and method pertaining to a basketball shooting aiming aid, which is positioned at a rear side of a transparent basketball goal apparatus and provides a rear target at which a shooter may aim when shooting a bank shot, which target is independent of the shooter's position on the court at the moment of shooting. A minimum impingement height line is also provided so that when a basketball impinges the backboard above this line and along a line toward the rear target, the basketball will reflect downwardly at an angle of at least 32 degrees, increasing the chance of moving through the rim.
