I cant hit a shot in basketball anymore

I can't seem to hit a shot right now besides practice and even then its real streaky. I can't drive and layup. I use to be able to get crazy shots while driving and my three ball was consistent. But now I just can't hit a shot, can't drive, can't layup unless I'm real lucky. Is this normal? Cause I've got a competition coming up and I'm the starting SG for the team and I really wanna get my shot back.

I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.

perhaps a minor injury is bothering your shooting?

I was just practicing my stroke and felt a slight pain in my upper arm. I can't lose this game, we've lost the last 3 to them and I wanna get back on them

Work on your technique. That shouldn't happen for so long.

You might be nervous about the competition; try not to over think it if you can
You don't want to get the yips
