Basketball Fundamentals

This section is going to cover all of the basketball basics. And, while it has some standard drills, most are going to be teaching based. With these teaching videos, both players and coaches will learn how to make different moves correctly and the teaching points that go along with them. This is important because the better a player can learn the correct way to make a move, the better it will translate to a game. For example, you can have a basketball drill that works on a duck in post-move. But, if a player hasn’t first learned all of the details of the duck in post-move, it isn’t going to be nearly as effective.

That is what these basketball fundamentals videos are for. You will be able to watch the video and learn the correct way to do a movement. The coach in the training video will breakdown all of the details in a way that is easy to understand and apply. From here, the player will be able to practice the move the correct way.

Practice doesn’t make perfect; perfect practice makes perfect. So before you start repping different basketball moves in drills, make sure that you first know all of the basketball fundamentals and details of different moves, actions, etc.

In today’s game of basketball, it is becoming the standard for every player to be able to handle the ball. Post players are now able to bring the ball up the floor and even start the offense. Whether you are looking for that type of offense or not, though, it is still important for every player to be able to handle the ball at least a little bit. With all of the different ball handling drills that we offer, this will not be an issue.

Within our basketball dribbling drills sections, you will get access to a variety of dribbling drills. These different basketball drills will cover game moves, tennis ball drills, two ball drills, wall dribbling drills, and more. Each of these types of basketball dribbling drills will work on a different area of ball handling.

For example, tennis ball dribbling drills will work on hand-eye coordination, quick hands, and keeping your eyes up. While, two ball basketball dribbling drills are going to work on dribbling with either hand, ball control, and overall handles. There will be some overlap in each type of dribbling drill, but they will also work on specific areas.

The other great thing about having multiple types of basketball dribbling drills is rotating in new drills. Doing the same ball handling drills every day can get repetitive and boring. When this happens, players begin to check out mentally when doing the drills. Having new basketball drills to challenge a player will make a huge difference in improving a player’s handles.

This section will offer a massive selection of dribbling drills, and most of them can be adapted for a single player or larger groups. So whether you are a coach looking for basketball dribbling drills, or a player on their own, this section will adequately cover both.

The highest percentage shot in basketball is right at the basket. Unfortunately, the defense also knows this and will do everything they can to stop finishes at the basket. Good offensive finishers, though, are still able to attack the basket and finish at a high percentage.

They can do this by sometimes finishing over the defender, but most of the time finishing around them. With different finishes, body control, change of pace, etc., they can avoid the defense for a quality finish. Players and teams that can do this well will set themselves up for success.
