This is a drill I use to start your [tag]basketball practice[/tag]. You will be able to see ball handling improvement in all of your players, including the “bigs”.
Each set is down and back at a decent pace (fast as they can go and still handle the [tag]basketball[/tag]).
1. “ Down, IN AND OUT WITH RIGHT HAND, back IN AND OUT WITH LEFT HAND
2. “ Two dribbles, ACCELERATE WITH CROSSOVER, down and back
3. “ Two dribbles, ACCELERATE WITH BETWEEN THE LEGS, down and back
4. “ Two dribbles, BEHIND THE BACK, both ways, down and back
5. “ BETWEEN THE LEGS, BEHIND THE BACK–go behind the back immediately after going between the legs.
Players line up on the base line, send around 5 down and back, then the next group.
Do 3 sets of this and the improvements are immediate!
