This is a great basketball dribbling drill to work on the crossover move, but it will also help you develop soft hands and a good touch with the basketball. As a ball-handler in basketball, you want to be able to change which hand is dribbling the basketball with ease. Most moves you use to get by a defender will require the ball to move back and forth between both hands.
