What do you guys think of my shooting form?

Hey guys. I'm 14 (just turned 14) and 5'10". I played basketball since 6th grade but never took it seriously until the summer of 7th grade. So I guess you could say I have only played basketball for 1 year. I just want to know if my release for my shooting form looks good, this it it -

Is there anything wrong with it? Anything I need to change? Any tips thanks!

feet need to be apart a little bit more

"I've missed more than 9,000 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."-Michael Jordan

Your shooting form looks pretty good. Your feet are close together, but many players begin their shot with their feet shoulder width apart and bring them together when they're in the air, which is what it looks like you did. As long as you bring them back apart so you can land right (and you're consistent with your shot) then you should be fine.
