Basketball: Dribble

Use your fingertips, not the palms of your hands. Use your forearm and wrist to bounce the ball. Don't look at the ball. Keep your head up and eyes forward. You must learn to use either hand.

  • Keep ball bouncing low
  • knees stay bent
  • opposite arm guarding in front of player
