"Have you ever heard of Kenny Sailors?"
"Kenny who?"
"Didn't the jump shot always exist in basketball?"

The short answer is no.

In the early 1900s, the sport of basketball was in its infancy. The basic elements of the game included passing the ball, no physical contact, and only two-handed set shots. Times were ripe for improvements and the development of new techniques.

A few notable players in the 1930s and 1940s began to jump and shoot a basketball. But it was Kenny Sailors who stepped in and made the modern-day jump shot famous.

Beyond the Jump Shot is a story of basketball and life that will elevate and inspire you to believe, and try something different.

FROM KENNY'S SON DAN:

"With the jump shot, my dad left his mark on basketball. His example in sports and life elevated others to become people of character, integrity, and faith. Pop taught those around him the value of hard work, respect for authority, and doing your best. He cared about his God, family, country, and the Marines. Basketball was a thread that ran through the life of Kenny Sailors. Pop realized there was life after sports and was compelled to encourage others to elevate their lives and dreams."
