A block is executed by simply placing the racket in front of the ball right after the ball bounces; thus, the ball rebounds back toward the opponent with nearly as much energy as it came in with.

It is very possible for an opponent to execute a perfect loop, drive, or smash, only to have the blocked shot come back just as fast. Due to the power involved in offensive strokes, often an opponent simply cannot recover quickly enough to return the blocked shot, especially if the block is aimed at an unexpected side of the table.

On December 7, 1985, the team set the current Big Ten Conference single-game record for team blocked shots with 18 against , and Tarpley led the conference with a 2.50 blocked shot average in conference games for the season.
Shortly after with the play in Vancouver's end, Henrik Sedin attempted to make a pass to the middle of the ice which resulted in a turnover. On the ensuing play, a Dan Boyle shot deflected off Alexander Edler and through the pads of Luongo. The puck stopped short of the goal line, but Patrick Marleau tapped the puck in to tie the game. In overtime, a blocked shot led to an odd man rush for the Sharks, resulting in Raffi Torres scoring the game-winning goal. The loss put the Canucks down 2–0 in the series.
He scored at least nine points in 20 of 29 games, including double figures in 14 games. He erupted for a career-high 29 points on 9-of-14 shooting with four 3-pointers in a Big Ten Tournament quarterfinal victory over Indiana. He then scored 19 points and handed out eight assists in Big Ten-clinching win at Purdue. That game saw Head make a dramatic game-winning play when he threw a half-court pass to Roger Powell and followed Powell's blocked shot by putting in a rebound basket with nine-tenths of a second remaining.
Prior to Game 2, Rasheed Wallace famously guaranteed a Detroit victory. With Detroit clinging to a 69–67 lead with under 30 seconds to play, after Billups recovered the basketball after a Jermaine O'Neal blocked shot of Rasheed Wallace, Jamaal Tinsley stripped Billups and found Reggie Miller open down the court for what appeared to be the tying lay-up. As Miller approached the basket, Tayshaun Prince ran in from the left wing and blocked Miller's lay-up as it left his fingertips. Richard Hamilton recovered the loose ball before it went out of bounds and was fouled by Tinsley.
Blocked-in poses may also include important in-betweens, extremes, and breakdowns necessary to establishing the flow and timing of a particular shot. In 3D, the animation curves of a blocked shot are often created using "stepped" or "square" tangencies, which provides no interpolation between animation poses. This allows the animator to see the poses of the animation without any strange and/or unintentional automatic interpolation. While this is sometimes problematic due to gimbal lock, seeing the poses in this way allows the animator to adjust the timing of an animation quickly, without the distraction of the software's automatic interpolation.
A player with the ability to block shots can be a positive asset to a team's defense, as they can make it difficult for opposing players to shoot near the basket and by keeping the basketball in play, as opposed to swatting it out of bounds, a blocked shot can lead to a fast break, a skill Bill Russell was notable for. To be a good shot-blocker, a player needs great court sense and timing, and good height or jumping ability. One tactic is that a shot-blocker can intimidate opponents to alter their shots, resulting in a miss.
The 17 wins without a loss at home is tied for the second most in school history. Miller would add to the season's success by guiding the Cats to their first Elite Eight appearance since the 2004–2005 Season as a 5-seed. In the second round, Arizona secured a 2-point victory over 12th seeded Memphis (coached by former Wildcat (and member of the 1997 national title team) Josh Pastner) with a blocked shot in the final seconds by Derrick Williams. Arizona would follow with another close game—a controversial one- point win against 4-seed Texas.
Though he continued to play following the blocked shot, he required emergency surgery on one of his testicles following the game, causing him to miss the remainder of the regular season. Grebeshkov was cleared to play prior to Game 2 of the Predators' Western Conference Quarter-final match-up against the Chicago Blackhawks. However, he was a healthy scratch for Games 2, 3 and 4 as Predators Head Coach Barry Trotz elected to play rookie Cody Franson in his place. Grebeshkov made his Stanley Cup playoff debut in Game 5, registering two assists in the 5–4 Predators loss.
Because of injuries, Carr was moved to outside right, a position he had never played, for the replay, but according to the Manchester Guardian, "he had his share of that inspiration that lifted the whole team high above its normal form". The score after 90 minutes was 1–1. In the first nine minutes of extra time, Darlington scored three times to take the match 4–1. Carr, who was by then playing at centre-forward because Ron Harbertson had injured a shoulder, scored the second of those three with a header after Tommy Moran's blocked shot had rebounded to him.
Miller was coached by Linda K. Sharp, one of college basketball's most winning coaches. In her senior season, Miller picked up her third Naismith Award, the Broderick Award as the Female College Basketball Player of the Year and Sports Illustrated named her the best player in college basketball, male or female. Miller still holds numerous Trojan career records, including points (3,018, 23.6 ppg), rebounds (1,534, 12.0 rpg), field goals made (1,159), free throws made (700), games played (128), and steals (462). Miller's previous Trojan records in assists (414) was almost doubled by Rhonda Windham (735); Lisa Leslie topped her blocked shot record by one (321).
Shawn Bradley is tied for second all-time in single game blocks (14). In basketball, a block (short for blocked shot) occurs when a defender deflects or stops a field goal attempt without committing a foul. The National Collegiate Athletic Association's (NCAA) Division I players on this list all accomplished the rare feat of blocking 13 shots in a single game. The 1985–86 season was the first that statistics on blocks were first compiled by the NCAA. The highest single game block total by one player in NCAA Division I men's basketball history is 16, set by Mickell Gladness of Alabama A&M; on February 24, 2007 against Texas Southern.
Granger was selected 17th overall in the 2005 NBA draft by the Indiana Pacers. He was named to the NBA All-Rookie Second Team after averaging 7.5 points and 4.9 rebounds in 78 games. He was a starter in the T-Mobile Rookie Challenge during All-Star Weekend in Houston on February 17, 2006, where he had nine points, three rebounds, two assists and a blocked shot in six minutes, and shot 2-of-4 from 3-point range. In 2006–07, Granger became one of only four Pacers players to hit 100+ 3-point field goals in a season in the previous 15 years.
Interest from overseas teams peaked but Panathinaikos helf firm and kept him. This came after he scored 19 goals for the Panathinaikos U20 team. In September 2018, he scored his first goal as a professional player, with a side-footed kick after being teed up by Argyris Kampetsis, in a 3–1 home win Super League game against Lamia, being the first player born in the 21st century to score in Greek Superleague. On the last matchday of the 2018–19 season, having come on as a substitute, Emmanouilidis completed the scoring in a 4–0 defeat of Panetolikos with the rebound from Nikos Giannakopoulos' blocked shot.
Despite going undrafted in the 2019 NBA Draft, Fall was signed to an Exhibit 10 Contract on June 21, 2019 by the Boston Celtics. Fall played for the Celtics during the 2019 NBA Summer League season, scoring six points in his first game alongside four rebounds; in his second game he tallied twelve points for his first double-digit scoring game, alongside another rebound. He had one blocked shot in each of his first two games.

The injury was initially undisclosed at the time and was erroneously reported as having resulted from a blocked shot. At the time of the injury, he had 15 points (2 goals and 13 assists) over 11 games, tying him for sixth in NHL scoring. After nearly two months of recovery, he began practicing with the Blues, but had a setback in late-December; a subsequent MRI exam revealed additional hip damage. Undergoing surgery for a torn acetabular labrum on January 5, 2009, the team listed him as sidelined indefinitely, while Blues president John Davidson told reporters he might be back late that season or the next.
He also added six assists, five rebounds and a blocked shot, all without a turnover. On January 24, Roy tied a Blazers franchise record with 10 steals against the Washington Wizards. On February 8 with the Blazers trailing by 1 against the Knicks, Roy made a layup at the buzzer to win it 109–108. As of February 16, 2009, Roy has had 24 shots which tied or won the games with 35 seconds or less. Roy was again selected as a reserve in the 2009 NBA All-Star Game, where he scored 14 points in 7-for-8 shooting, grabbed 5 boards, and dished out 5 assists in a game-high 31 minutes of action.
He made his first appearance in a Gonzaga jersey on November 5, 2016, when scoring four points to go along with four rebounds, three assists, two blocked shots and two steals in twelve minutes of play against West Georgia. As a freshman during the 2016-17 season, Tillie appeared in 33 games, averaging 4.2 points and 3.2 rebounds in 12.3 minutes.

And in the 1997 NCAA Tournament, the Stags nearly achieved a historical upset of top- seeded North Carolina after leading the Tar Heels by seven points at halftime. The team also won the MAAC Regular Season Title in 1986 and the MAAC Championship Tournament in 1986, 1987 and 1997. Individually, Joe DeSantis earned All-American honors in 1979; Darren Phillip was the nation's top rebounder averaging 14 rebounds per game in 2000; and Deng Gai was the nation's top shot blocker in 2005 averaging 5.5 blocks per game which ranks #5 on the NCAA's all-time blocked shot average list. Thirteen Stags have been either drafted or signed to play in the National Basketball Association.
On November 30, 2016, Towns recorded a career-high 47 points and 18 rebounds in a 106–104 loss to the New York Knicks. At 21 years old, Towns became the third-youngest player in the last three decades to have at least 45 points and 15 rebounds in a game. In addition, his 22 first-quarter points were two off of Chauncey Billups' franchise record of 24. With two blocks against the Charlotte Hornets on December 3, Towns established a new Timberwolves record with his 27th straight game with at least one blocked shot.

On June 25, 2015, Dawson was selected by the New Orleans Pelicans with the 56th overall pick in the 2015 NBA draft, only to be traded to the Los Angeles Clippers for cash considerations later that night. After posting 12.8 points and 10.3 rebounds in 25.5 minutes per game in the 2015 NBA Summer League, he signed a two-year contract with the Clippers on July 15.

On December 28, he made his NBA debut, recording one blocked shot in three minutes of action against the Washington Wizards.
The SIUE team moved to Philadelphia for a Sunday night game with the Penn Quakers. Following the game, coach Mario Sanchez said, "Unfortunately we didn't come out prepared to compete, And we got punished." The Cougars' unreadiness put Penn in control of the first half, attacking repeatedly, while SIUE's lackluster play and slipshod passing game only enhanced the home team's efforts. In the 15th minute, failure to cover or clear a blocked shot left it right at a Quakers player's feet, and he fired it into the net to give Penn the lead. In the 27th minute, a Penn player intercepted a short, slow pass, dribbled clear, and fired it across the goal and into the far corner, giving the Quakers a 2–0 advantage.
David Robinson recorded 207 blocks in 1985–86, the most for a single season in NCAA history. In basketball, a block (short for blocked shot) occurs when a defender deflects or stops a field goal attempt without committing a foul. The National Collegiate Athletic Association's (NCAA) Division I block title is awarded to the player with the highest blocks per game average in a given season. The block title was first recognized in the 1985–86 season when statistics on blocks were first compiled by the NCAA. David Robinson of Navy holds the all-time NCAA Division I record single-season blocks record (207) which was set during 1985–86, coincidentally the first season that the NCAA kept track of blocked shots.
Head coach Bob Hartley praised Giordano's influence on his teammates as the rebuilding Flames team established an identity as a squad which was noted across the league for its work ethic. A blocked shot injured Giordano early in the 2013–14 season as he suffered a broken ankle in late October. He missed 18 games due to the injury, during which the Flames gained only five wins. He still recorded career highs of 13 goals and 47 points. Though he was not named to the team, Giordano's growing reputation placed him on Team Canada's short list for the 2014 Winter Olympics, and he received a first place vote (finishing 10th overall) in voting for the James Norris Memorial Trophy as the league's top defenceman.
Midfielder Darren Homan kicked two points and dominated the middle of the pitch initially but, like his team, he could not sustain the challenge. Ciarán Whelan, operating between midfield and centre forward where he was named to start, saw a thundering shot rebound off the crossbar as the sides were level at the interval. In contrast there was a touch of good fortune about Kerry’s goal with Colm Cooper’s half-blocked shot coming back off an upright to the unmarked Dara Ó Cinnéide, who goaled on 47 minutes. Kerry went on to dominate the rest of the match and secured a 1-15 to 1-8 victory. The All-Ireland semi-final meeting Dublin and Kerry on 26 August 2007 is regarded as a classic in its own right.
In September 2012, Harper signed a contract with the Portland Trail Blazers which was put on waivers in October 2012. The Reno Bighorns selected Demonte Harper in Round 2 with Pick 5 in the 2012 Annual NBA Development League Draft. On November 5, 2012, Harper was acquired from Reno in a trade by the Erie BayHawks. In September 2013, Harper signed with BC Tsmoki-Minsk of Belarus. In preseason action for Tsmoki-Minsk, Harper scored 17 points in a 94-88 win over Budivelnyk. In July 2014, Harper was added to the Denver Nuggets NBA Summer League team's roster. Harper scored 7 points in less than 7 minutes against the NBA D-League Select team. Against the Los Angeles Lakers, Harper's defense was irreplaceable as he played over 28 minutes, scoring 8 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, and 1 blocked shot.
Mayuka was later brought down in the box in the final minute of normal time, Steven Davis converted the penalty to give Saints the win, and Ramírez scored straight after to make it a 5–1 win for the Premier League side. ;Bristol City (24 September 2013) The draw for the Third Round took place the day after Southampton's win against Barnsley, pitting the Saints at home against recently relegated League One side Bristol City in a tie played on 24 September.

However, he opted to forego a fifth year at Georgetown to graduate on time in May 1991 and move on to a 15-season professional career in the National Basketball Association. During his three seasons with the Hoyas he had averaged one block for every six and a half minutes he had played, and he left with the third-highest career blocked-shot total in school history and averaging 9.8 points and 8.6 rebounds per game. Despite having both Mutombo and Mourning on the team during those three years, Georgetown had not returned to the Final Four, largely because an unusually high number of scholarship players - 11 of 23 - transferred from Georgetown between 1987-1988 and 1992-1993, preventing the team from building a core of veterans to play with its two dominating centers. Without that core of veterans, the Mourning- Mutombo teams were unable to replicate the success of the veteran-filled Patrick Ewing teams of the early 1980s, which had reached the Final Four - and indeed the national championship game - three times in four seasons.
The team was unranked the entire season in the Associated Press Top Twenty Poll, and it also ended the season unranked in the final UPI Coaches' Poll. The team defeated two of the six ranked teams it faced (#2 75-74 at home on January 19, 1980, and #15 Purdue at home 75-64 on February 21). Marty Bodnar earned third team Academic All-American honors. Bodnar and Mark Lozier served as team captains, while Mike McGee earned team MVP honors. John Garris set the School record for career blocked shot average with 1.09, which lasted until 1986 when Roy Tarpley ended his career with a 2.06 average. On January 26, 1980, McGee became the first Wolverine to play more than 50 minutes in a single game when he was on the floor for 54 minutes against the , surpassing Phil Hubbard's 1976 50-minute effort. Mark Bodnar became the first Michigan Wolverines player on record to total 13 assists in a game on December 13, 1980, against the . No Wolverine would surpass 13 assists in a game until Gary Grant did so on December 7, 1987.
In mid-January, Rice had his first back- to-back twenty-point scoring nights on January 16 and 19 against North Carolina and Wake Forest. Later in the season, he posted season highs in rebounds and point in back-to-back games: Rice had 12 rebounds on January 30 against the Maryland Terrapins and 28 points on February 3 against the . Coach Paul Hewitt suspended him for the final three games of the season. Following the 2011 NBA draft selection of Iman Shumpert, Rice was the leading returning scorer for the 2011-12 Yellow Jackets. He was suspended for the first three games of the 2011–12 season for an undisclosed violation of team rules. When he returned to the lineup following his suspension on November 18, he assumed the role of a sixth man. In his return to the starting lineup on December 3 against the , Rice not only posted his first double-double of the season with 11 points and 11 rebounds, but also had his first career 4-blocked shot effort. He posted his second double-double of the season on December 19 against when he tallied 21 points, 10 rebounds and 3 blocks.
The Hoyas played well in the first half, leading by as many as five points on more than one occasion and forcing Maryland to commit nine turnovers. Georgetown only scored off two of those turnovers, however, and late in the half was stymied by a Maryland zone defense. After a frustrated Sweetney was called for an intentional foul, allowing the Terrapins to score four points and causing a six-point turnaround in the game, the Hoyas lost the lead. Demetrius Hunter missed a dunk and Maryland began to collect a number of offensive rebounds, off one of which they scored at the buzzer to take a 38-36 halftime lead. Early in the second half, Maryland extended its lead to nine points, with center Lonnie Baxter scoring six of them on his way to a 26-point, 14-rebound performance for the Terrapins. Boumtje-Boumtje played tentatively and fouled out after playing only 19 minutes, with three rebounds, one blocked shot, and no points scored. Although Braswell shot only 3-for-22 (13.6%) from the field, he and Scruggs led the Hoyas to a comeback that allowed them to close to 59–56 with under five minutes to play and a 67-62 deficit with 3:17 remaining.
