3 Dribble Partner Tennis Ball Toss Behind the Back Basketball Drill

 

If you are looking for a great ball-handling basketball drill to not only work on dribbling but hand-eye coordination as well, this is the drill you have been looking for. Dribbling the basketball and tossing the tennis ball will force your body to do two things simultaneously and help develop your hand-eye coordination.

Even if you have big men who are not primary ball handlers, this is a good basketball drill. It will really help to develop their hands for catching and finishing around the basket, which most post players need to work on.
