This is a great two ball basketball dribbling drill for developing good hands and working on ball control. Although you will never use this move in a game, it is a great basketball drill to improve your hands and really work on guiding the basketball where you want it to go. To be a great point guard in basketball, it is key that you have good ball control.
These types of basketball dribbling drills are also great for non-ball handlers to do as well because they are good for developing soft hands. A post player needs to be spending time developing their hands to catch the ball, finish around the basket, etc. This is a great drill to use for that.
