Basketball Video with Two Ball Dribbling Moves & Drills
Two-ball dribbling drills are extremely effective in improving your dribbling and ball-handling. Here is why...
Whenever you do activities that are more difficult than you are accustomed to, the previous activity becomes easier in relation to what you are now doing. So, if you regularly practice dribbling with two basketballs, imagine how easy it would be to dribble with one.
Here is a video of stationary two-ball dribbling moves that you can practice. The skill level for these drills vary from youth, middle school, high school, college, and all the way to pro players.
I've posted the sequence below the video. A few are repeated.
We have also posted a few sample two-ball dribbling and ball-handling workouts below the sequence.

Sample Two Ball Dribbling & Ball Handling Workouts
Do each drill for 15 to 20 seconds. Then go to the next drill. After you do this whole sequence, you'll
feel your wrist and forearms burning which is GREAT, because this is exactly what you want to strengthen
the appropriate muscles for ball handling and dribbling.
The number in parentheses behind the drill is in reference to the sequence for the video above.
Beginner Workout
Power Dribble - Waist Level
High Dribble - Shoulder Height
Low Dribble - below Knees
Alternating High & Low - Three Dribbles High, Three Dribbles Low
Alternating Dribble - Left, Right, Left, Right (5)

Crossover (1)
Around one Leg - Two Dribbles (8)
One Dribble Between Crossovers (9 -This one is not the exact same as 9, he does two
crossovers in a row)
Intermediate Workout
Same as the beginners workout, except you add 4 to 5 difficult variations.
Choose 4 to 5 from this group:
Behind the back – 1 direction (13)
Between legs & behind back while maintaining other dribble (15)
Between leg & crossover (16)
Figure 8 (18)
Front between the legs (19)
Low dribbling on one Leg (20)

As you get better, you can perform the beginner drills for 5 to 10 seconds and add more
intermediate and advanced dribbling drills to the workout.

its about making the kids decide what kind of a player they want to be. The best they could be or mediocre.

Always be careful with 2 ball drills because while they are great to develop a good handle they do not correspond to going from A to B with speed or changing pace. Do not spend too much time doing these and disregard making dribble moves against an opponent these transfer to the game.

Great for building and developing skill and being a confident ball handler. Definitley something for the off season. Still require emphasis on game specific situations and in this regard incorporating movement of hips, knees and feet become important.
