Abstract

There is a basketball training device configured to block a low-arc basketball shot. The training device includes a base configured to support the basketball training device. The training device also includes a plurality of support members adjustably coupled to an end of the base and configured to extend horizontally therefrom when in an extended mode thereby providing a wider base. The training device includes a telescoping member coupled to an end of the base. The training device includes a net selectably coupled to an end of the telescoping member and configured to alter any basketball shot, which is lower that a top end of the net mechanism. The net mechanism is transparent configured to provide a clear view of the basketball rim. The basketball training device includes a plurality of wheels coupled to the plurality of support members configured to transport the basketball training device about a basketball court.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A basketball training device configured to block a low-arc basketball shot, comprising:
 a) a base configured to support the basketball training device;   b) a plurality of support members adjustably coupled to an end of the base and configured to extend horizontally therefrom when in an extended mode thereby providing a wider base;   c) a telescoping member coupled to an end of the base, opposite of the plurality of support members and configured to selectably extend and retract; and   d) a net mechanism selectably coupled to an end of the telescoping member opposite the base and extending in a vertical planar configuration from the telescoping member and configured to alter any basketball shot, which is lower that a top end of the net mechanism.   
     
     
         2 . The training device of  claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of wheels coupled to the plurality of support members configured to transport the basketball training device about a basketball court. 
     
     
         3 . The training device of  claim 2 , further comprising a plurality of locking mechanisms coupled to the plurality of wheels configured to secure the plurality of wheels in a stationary position. 
     
     
         4 . The training device of  claim 1 , wherein the net mechanism is transparent. 
     
     
         5 . The training device of  claim 1 , wherein the net mechanism further includes a transparent rod member configured to selectably couple to the telescoping member. 
     
     
         6 . The training device of  claim 1 , wherein the telescoping member further includes an angled aperture configured to support and secure the transparent rod member to the telescoping member. 
     
     
         7 . The training device of  claim 1 , wherein the net mechanism includes a textile material configured to alter any basketball shot, which is lower that a top end of the net mechanism. 
     
     
         8 . The training device of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of support members include a padding member disposed about an end of the plurality of support members and configured to prevent damage to the basketball playing surface during transportation and use. 
     
     
         9 . A basketball training device configured to block a low-arc basketball shot, comprising:
 a) a base configured to support the basketball training device;   b) a plurality of support members adjustably coupled to an end of the base and configured to extend horizontally therefrom when in an extended mode thereby providing a wider base;   c) a telescoping member coupled to an end of the base, opposite of the plurality of support members and configured to selectably extend and retract;   d) a net mechanism selectably coupled to an end of the telescoping member opposite the base and extending in a vertical planar configuration from the telescoping member and configured to alter any basketball shot, which is lower that a top end of the net mechanism; and   e) a plurality of wheels coupled to the plurality of support members configured to transport the basketball training device about a basketball court.   
     
     
         10 . The training device of  claim 9 , further comprising a plurality of locking mechanisms coupled to the plurality of wheels configured to secure the wheels in a stationary position. 
     
     
         11 . The training device of  claim 10 , wherein the net mechanism is transparent. 
     
     
         12 . The training device of  claim 11 , wherein the net mechanism further includes a transparent rod member configured to selectably couple to the telescoping member. 
     
     
         13 . The training device of  claim 12 , wherein the net mechanism includes a textile material configured to alter any basketball shot, which is lower that a top end of the net mechanism. 
     
     
         14 . The training device of  claim 13 , wherein the telescoping member further includes an angled aperture configured to support and secure the transparent rod member to the telescoping member. 
     
     
         15 . A basketball training system configured to block a low-arc basketball shot, comprising:
 a) a base configured to support the basketball training device;   b) a plurality of support members adjustably coupled to an end of the base and configured to extend horizontally therefrom when in an extended mode thereby providing a wider base;   c) a telescoping member coupled to an end of the base, opposite of the plurality of support members and configured to selectably extend and retract; wherein the telescoping member includes an adjustment mechanism configured to secure and angle the telescoping member;   d) a net mechanism selectably coupled to an end of the telescoping member opposite the base and extending in a vertical planar configuration from the telescoping member and configured to alter any basketball shot, which is lower that a top end of the net mechanism; wherein the net mechanism is transparent; wherein the net mechanism includes a textile material configured to alter any basketball shot, which is lower that a top end of the net mechanism;   e) a plurality of wheels coupled to the plurality of support members configured to transport the basketball training device about a basketball court; and   f) a plurality of locking mechanisms coupled to the plurality of wheels configured to secure the wheels in a stationary position.
