"Shooting" = "lanzamiento"


Explanation:
"dribbling" = "dribbling" we stick to the English word

"passing" beats me so far...

"rebounding" = "rebotes"

"foot-work" still beats me as well

\"foot-work\" = \"trabajo de pies\" yes too literal to be true

\"passing\" = \"técnicas de pase\"

Explanation:
shooting: tirar / tomar un tiro (de dos o tres puntos, según la posición del tirador)

dribbling: driblear

passing: pasar la pelota

rebounding: tomar el rebote (ofensivo o defensivo /en defensa)

foot-work: pivotear / movimiento de los pies. Si se refiere al hecho de que un jugador mantiene el pie de apoyo (llamado el pie de pivot) en el piso y mueve el otro hacia adelante, atrás, a los costados o girando el pie de pivot sin levantarlo del piso mientras tiene la pelota en la mano, el término exacto es pivotear.
