As a basketball player, if you can think and do two different moves simultaneously with two basketballs, you are developing your handles while also building your mental toughness.
This will help translate into the game, and you will better be able to dribble the ball while reading the defense and setting up the offense. Two ball basketball dribbling drills are great for helping younger players work on their weak hand because they don’t have the ability to switch the basketball to their strong hand every time they get in trouble.
