To become a good dribbler and ball handler players must practice dribbling as often as they can, using both hands. They may dribble only: 1. To advance the ball up the court. 2. To drive to the basket. 3. To get open for a shot. 4. To open up a passing lane, to have a better chance of completing a pass. 5. To get out of a trap. 6. To use up the clock at the end of a game. Players should use their fingertips, not the palms of their hands. Basketball is played on the tips of the fingers and the balls of the feet. Players should use their forearm and wrist to bounce the ball. They should not look at the ball, keep their head up and eyes forward, and learn to use either hand. Copyright 2003-2023 FIBA Europe.
