Make sure that you're dribbling the ball correctly. Instead of using your palm to dribble focus on using your fingertips. This allows you to control the ball better. Be sure to dribble beside your body instead of in front of yourself. Bounce the ball at a level even with your waist. Don't look at the ground, always keep your eyes focused forward.
Learn how a bounce pass is thrown. Good bounce passes need to hit the other player waist length when they receive it. It's smart to get the ball to bounce about 75% to the receiving player. But, a series of other considerations can require you to make adjustments.
Watch how the pros play basketball. Go to a bunch of professional games in person, watch them on television, or just get online to search for basketball videos. You'll learn that every player is skilled at certain things and that can help you to know what you can do to get better.
Shake things up rather than focusing solely on a zone defense. Usually, a big part of the game is probably going to be in zone; however, the opposing team can suddenly switch to man-to-man to catch you off guard. If you have not practiced enough on this scenario, you could run afoul of the scoreboard very fast.
Would you like to fool the opposing team? Try the back pass. Hold the basketball with your writing hand. With that same hand, bring the ball around your back. Finally your wrist should be flicked towards where you want the ball to go. This should make it easy to trick the other team.
Children who aspire to become great basketball players in high school must engage in physical fitness activities that focus on the core muscles. Show them how to exercise their hips, lower back and abs. Your performance is going to be sub-par if you don't have strengthened core muscles. A well developed core lets a player generate force with their legs to be applied to faster running and jumping higher.
Keeping your fingers spread wide is important for holding onto the ball. This will help you keep a better grip on the ball. Also, keep your palm off the ball. You should only let the fingers touch the ball during passing or shooting.
Have someone record the games you play so that you can watch it to check out your form. You may see things differently as you observe the game and notice things you missed in the game. Be honest when assessing, but avoid being overly critical. This gives you an unfettered view of how you actually performed on the court, rather than relying solely on your memory of the game.
Do you have the answers you were looking for? Do you want to show off your new skills? Are you set to up your basketball skills? Go forward, start practicing, implement these tips and find the great rewards you will get as a result.
