How to unlock the Hoopin' it Up achievement in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas - The Definitive Edition - Definitive Guide

During the robbery of the old man, together with Ryder, you drive the van into the garage, to the left of the garages there is a playground, take the ball and start the game.
To make sure every throw goes into the hoop you need to:
Go to the center of the marker and hold it down and you must release the key exactly at the moment when the throw animation starts and CJ's legs begin to lift off the asphalt.
Make a couple of throws and you'll understand the timing.

in general, it is not clear what affects what, but when you throw the ball, look carefully at the feet of the CJ. squeeze , and at the moment when the CJ lifts his feet off the asphalt, release the button. the further from the ring, the longer you need to hold it. also don't forget about sprinting through .

If it doesn't work at all, change the control layout and set the attack to circle , at the trigger there is still some movement and the button is not always released all the way at the right moment.

There is some hidden skill in the game for pumping up the game of basketball, as I noticed. You won't pass the first time, only on the 3-5th attempt, but even if you see that you won't score 30 points in the allotted time, don't leave the game, play until the timer runs out. In the first game, you'll score about 10-15 points, in the second up to 23, in the third already under 28-30, as luck would have it. In the fourth under 40, etc.

If you go 100 percent, you can collect all the horseshoes before completing the trophy. Horseshoes increase your luck skill (not to be confused with gambling skill), and luck affects the probability of hitting the ball into the hoop.

I marked the basketball court where I won this trophy.
Important note! After saving in Matt Dog's house, basketballs may disappear and no longer spawn.
1. On the basketball court, approach the ball.
2. Click , to start the test (note that the test is timed).
3. Stand on the red checkpoints to shoot into the hoop.
4. To always hit the ring, hold down , and release it at the moment when Karl is at his highest point in the jump.
