To increase your jump you can do all sorts of jumping drills on one or two legs. Work in series of 8-10 jumps and no more than 3 series in one training. Specialise in VERTICAL jumps. After the series make 3 series of 8-10 jump shots against a blocking defender. Always use the same basic technique and after you have improved start using different techniques.
Hope this helps.
