Hey Kenny... where you at? 😆. Published on Feb 11, 2020 IN CINEMAS ONE NIGHT ONLY - APRIL 2ND Get tickets at: From Executive Producer Stephen Curry, the award-winning film JUMP SHOT celebrates the true story of Kenny Sailors, the forgotten basketball legend who introduced the jump shot, became a 2-time collegiate All American and NBA pioneer, revolutionized the sport for women, served as a US Marine in WWII, and then quietly faded into history. Attendees of the 1943 NCAA Basketball Championships at Madison Square Garden witnessed something almost no one had ever seen before — a “leaping one-hander”, now known as the “jump shot”, that revolutionized the game and launched an unheralded squad from the University of Wyoming to the trophy. JUMP SHOT is the inspiring true story of Kenny Sailors, the developer, and innovator of the shot that defined the game of basketball without letting it define him. To see this incredible story on the big screen, go to: When an unstable, emerging league now known as the NBA came calling, Kenny Sailors was ready to take the jump shot to the pros. But after a few years, Kenny disappeared into the Alaskan wilderness only to be forgotten by the sport he helped pioneer. In JUMP SHOT we meet basketball superstars and a multitude of everyday people who Kenny’s story has touched along the way. Kenny Sailors was an NCAA Tourney MVP, NBA pioneer, true cowboy and a homesteader in the Alaskan frontier, a pioneer for female athletes, loving husband, father and community leader. JUMP SHOT is the story of a man with deep faith who brought to the game its greatest innovation, while always staying true to the things that matter most. For one night only on April 2nd the award-winning film JUMP SHOT will be playing in theaters across the US! Don’t miss out!

He Scored Seven Field Goals and One Free Throw, a Total of 15 Points” An excerpt from the LIFE story on this game:.... “Fortnight ago the Wyoming Cowboys made a long trek east and defeated Long Island University before a crowd of 18, 056.... using the expert ball control of Milo Komenich... and the fast, smooth dribble and the accurate jump shots of Kenny Sailors (above), the Cowboys went on to win 57-42” In “ The Origins of the Jump Shot, ” (University of Nebraska Press, 1999, pp. 205-206) author John Christgau wrote, “Discharged from the Marines in late 1945, Kenny... within days... found himself in Madison Square Garden again. One shot by Kenny Sailors... remains historic.... He had stolen a pass and then raced down the left side of the floor.... At the top of the key, he cut to his right and then stopped suddenly and jumped. Courtside spectators in folding chairs watched as he seemed to rise up into the scoreboard.... Now, at the peak of his jump and hanging-in-the-air in Madison Square Garden, he drew a bead on the basket.... Just before he dropped his left hand away to release the shot, a photographer’s flashbulb exploded silently. To the 18, 056 fans who were watching, the flashbulb explosion seemed to freeze Kenny Sailors in the air, while beneath him men as floor-bound as statuary looked up in awe. Two weeks later Life Magazine ran a photo story of the game.... millions of young players saw that picture of Kenny’s jump shot in Life, and that... began a chain reaction in basketball.... Everywhere young players on basketball courts began jumping to shoot. ”.
Imagine someone like lebron james going back in time and playing in one of the first NBA games, people would go even more crazy than today. 
I GOTTA SEE THIS. Rating: 3. 5/4 Have you ever watched Semi-Pro? The moment when Jackie Moon does the first dunk? The players stand and look agape, the referee fumbles his whistle, and when his feet land back onto the Earth, he’s changed the game. Now, Semi-Pro is an irreverent and silly film, but I tend to think that’s what happened when Kenny Sailors — basketball legend and inventor of the jumpshot — first fired off his elegantly formed shot. Kenny Sailors wasn’t a braggart. Far from it. He’d rather talk about his marriage to the love of his life Marilyn, or his time in the Marines during World War II, or the women’s high school basketball team who he coached to several state championships than talk about himself or that “silly” shot. Director Jacob Hamilton ‘s Jumpshot: The Kenny Sailors Story uncovers two facts that’s long been apparent: Kenny Sailors invented the modern jumpshot and he was a singular and amazing man. Hamilton’s documentary opens in 2011 in an empty gym. There’s an establishing shot of a basketball sitting idly on the floor. In walks an old man. He picks up the basketball, dribbles it off the floor, then bounces it off the floor for a basket. That’s Kenny Sailors, still gleefully outplaying people my age. Sailors, for the most part, is long forgotten. When Bobby Knight, Jerry Krause, Steph Curry, Dirk Nowitzski, Nancy Lieberman, Tim Legler, etc. are asked who invented the jumpshot, their faces squirm with the same puzzlement Sailors’ former opponents must have had 80 years ago. What follows is a journey from Laramie, Wyoming to Alaska to the annals of basketball lore. Hamilton, in his research for the film, uncovers some truly amazing archival footage — not just of basketball, but of Sailors’ life too. We see old photographs of Sailors, footage of his wife as a drum majorette, Laramie, Wyoming, his high school, and his games. And his games are incredible, especially his two David vs. Goliath moments: First, when his Wyoming team won the NCAA tournament, then when he beat back East Coast bias to defeat the NIT champions Saint John’s. Incredibly, Sailors played a different brand of basketball than anyone who had come before him. His brand began with the jumpshot, which he fashioned because he couldn’t beat his taller brother Bud in one-on-ones. So like many other great discoveries and achievements, the jumpshot was born from sibling rivalry. But Sailors was more than his shot. He was an adept ball handler, possessed stop-on-a-dime speed and quickness, and was an adroit defender. When Hamilton uses footage from Sailors’ games, especially from the NCAA tournament, or the famous photo from Life Magazine of Sailors rising over his flat-footed foes, we get a sense of just how far ahead he was of everyone else. Seeing him play is like watching the guy who presented sliced bread for the first time, he just cuts so smooth. And when current and former NBA and WNBA players see a picture of Sailors’ jumpshot, it’s like they’ve seen Santa Claus and the Eastern Bunny watching Jordan playing the Knicks at MSG. They’re just in awe. But the most marvelous component of Hamilton’s documentary is Kenny Sailors. Your documentary is only as good as your subject, and Hamilton has an incredible subject. Sailors is humble, aware, and just a hoot. His lust for life and energy rivals those half his age, and his sense of humor is as fluid as his playing. At one point, he jokes about suing the NBA for $5, 000 for the use of his jumshot. Much like Sailors must have been a player from a different era to his contemporaries, he feels like a man from a different time to us. Sailors isn’t in the Hall of Fame. He’s not in the Naismith Hall of Fame because he went to Alaska for three and a half decades, because his wife had asthma and that was the best place for her. He’s not in because he spent his life coaching women’s high school basketball rather than appearing on CBS as a commentator. He’s not in because he rarely brags about himself. But by not being in — as much as that will confound your brain — in some measure he proves how much more there is to life than accolades. Sailors should be in the Hall of Fame, but if you leave Hamilton’s touching documentary with only that in mind then you’ve missed the point. And much like the players he whizzed past in his youth, you’ve also missed Kenny Sailors. An official selection of SXSW 2019.

Full Jump Shot: The Kenny Sailors story 2. Inspiring video. Really humbling, good for you Mr. Sailors! One more person knows about your feat. Great job keeping up the fight, brother! I'm right there with you! Sending hugs! 🤗😘💜. 
Im committed! Im on a 40 day super strict healthy eating plan with my hubby! On day 5 and going ok, still craving unhealthy foods but Im not giving in, eating salads and fruit ! Keep going guys stay strong and do it for you! X.
Lol a rock that says Meow 😂😜😋👍😹. I know the struggle bro, I have struggled with food all my life. I am in a constant state of working out and losing weight, then regaining it. It has affected all aspects of my life, as I dont have energy or drive to do the essential things I want to accomplish. I'm in the military, and it has affected my career as well. I'm currently on an upward trend, losing weight and going to gym every day. Currently down to 240lbs from 255. Good luck bud, it's a daily fight, mentally and physically. It would be wise to listen to what someone Mr. Sailors' age has to say, and respect it, even if you disagree. In this case he has related the Truth. What you do with it will have eternal ramifications, one way or another. God bless you, Mr. Sailors for keeping it real.
Lol. This video was made to be purposely provocative in an effort to strip Canada of any credit for the development of the game. No wonder you only have 5k subscribes. You have zero credibility. Nice try. Tucker Carlson called. He wants the page you ripped out of his book back.
