What are some good drills to improve my basketball handling skills?

I practice almost ever other day and I really want to become better. I will have basketball try-outs in a few months and I need to improve. I only have one basketball so dribbling with two balls will be kind of hard. Thank you for all the help, all of you at Yahoo! Answers help me so much!!!!!!What are some good drills to improve my basketball handling skills?

Those are really cool, super comfy and I used them every game last season.
here are some.

1. bouncing the ball with 1 hand on a wall using fingers while not looking at it.

2.dribble the ball 5 times then rapidly slam it down 5 times.

3.and just do the basics, around the back, cross over etc......What are some good drills to improve my basketball handling skills?
Just run up and down the court doing moves like crossovers, behind the back, throuh the legs you know just regular stuff. This will help your basic ball handling and will also build stamina if you do it long enough... Also try standing and dribbling two basketballs at once for a while and then when you get more comfortable with it, switching hands, and bouncing them around your body and doing tricks. It will help your hand eye coordination which will help with dribbling...Also try going on youtube and looking up pete maravich ball handling turtorials. He has a bunch of crazy tricks to help you with your ballhandling, but i guess i works if he did it haha. Good luck bro
depends if your from the hood then it should come up naturally if your some wealthy suburban boy no hope for you.What are some good drills to improve my basketball handling skills?
just practice more.
Google "pete maravich basketball drills"



I didn't check these all out, but there are some youtube videos and links to websites that talk about the drills that Pistol Pete Maravich used to make him perhaps the greatest ball handler in NBA history.



You can NOT go wrong with Pistol, and the DVDs would be well worth the price. He was incredible. I met him at some basketball camps and the things he could do with a basketball simply defy description.
Dribble the ball everywhere, dribble around your neigboor hood, to a friends house, when you go to the mailbox, but dont stop dribbling.
