Generally speaking, the highest percentage shots are the ones closest to the basket while not being opposed by a defender close by. The dunk is almost a sure thing, while layups are missed periodically. Dunks have a higher percentage in shot making.

Dunking is the highest percentage shot in the NBA if you are unopposed to the basket, and if you can jump high enough to cleanly throw the ball into the hoop.

Is a layup the same as a slam-dunk?

No, a layup and a slam dunk are not the same. A layup is a shot taken close to the basket, typically using one hand to gently place the ball into the hoop while in motion. In contrast, a slam dunk involves jumping high to forcefully score by putting the ball directly through the hoop with one or both hands. While both are common scoring methods in basketball, they differ in technique and execution.
