Handling the basketball is the most crucial aspect of being a successful player in the sport. When you as a player are able to prevent the opposing team from stealing the ball from you as you pass it to a teammate or make a play to score a basket, you will maximize your chance at winning the game. The reason for this is due to the fact that the more turnovers you have the more chances you are giving the opposing team to score, making your ball handling skills important.

When you stretch go slow and easy. There is time to hustle once the game has begun. Use the time that you are stretching to test your body and ensure that everything feels right. Using your stretches to promote bodily awareness will tell you how hard you can push yourself in the game. Remember what you learned in gym class. These are usually the best exercises for you to do. These include basic squats, arm reaches over the head, and those stretches where you turn side to side.

This practice helps condition you for handling the ball on only one hand. After at least a few dozen times down the court with each hand practice on dribbling the ball in between your legs as you sprint down the court. This move should feel standard for you. By implementing this move to your repertoire it will be easier for you to defend the ball.

It doesn't matter how new or seasoned you are to the game of basketball. Dribbling is fundamental and something you should always be striving to improve. Know what sets you apart from other players? Understanding how to handle the ball when you're moving around the court. Dribbling in between and around your legs is another move that looks pretty impressive and can be useful while in a game. Using your body to protect the ball is a move that can confuse other players or be hard for them to work around.

Some of the best stretches for basketball are the basic ones you learned in gym class. Toe touches, squats while holding the ball, over head arm reaches, and stretches that have you turning side to side are great ways to ready your body for play. Stretches that focus on your back and core are much less effective for warming up your body.

These two simple workouts are practical ways to improve your ability to handle the basketball. One part of basketball that many people overlook to practice is their dribbling skills. Being a good basketball handler can help you reduce the overall amount of turnovers you commit every game. When you can minimize your turnover average you help give your team a much better fighting chance to be able to win more ball games. Practice the workouts mentioned to help your abilities in basketball for the rest of your life.
