Basic Dribbling in Basketball

Video Transcript

When you're dribbling the ball, we want to take about the basic dribble. When you're dribbling the ball, certain rules apply. You want to always keep the ball waist and below, waist and below. You don't want to go above the waist because once you go above the waist, you get a possible carrying calls and some other things that can happen. So, you want to keep the ball waist high and dribble right beside your body. Keep it outside of your body. You don't want to ever, try not to cross your feet ever when you're dribbling, you want to keep proper spacing. Proper spacing, proper spacing. So when you're dribbling, keep the ball like I said, waist below and also you don't want to go too high because when you go to high, what can happen is when you're taking off, if you're taking off and dribbling and you're too high, that gives a lot of room and a lot of time for the defense to actually steal the ball, reach in there and try to swipe it. So that's why they want to keep the ball from their waist below because it gives you more time it gives you gives you more control to use your body to kind of keep the ball where you want it to be. So basic dribbling for all you out there just starting out.
