Alright im pretty good at shooting and layups but how can i get better at dribbling fast?

Answer 1

Practice it.

Make sure you're not standing straight up while you dribble.

Answer 2

wear a basketball OUT by dribbling it EVERY DAY and EVERY AVAILABLE minute this summer, working on things like simple hand-to-hand dribbles, driving full court with your off hand only, dribble between cones,  etc...remember the ball will ALWAYS come back to your hand if you are controlling it with your fingertips...and keep your head up when bringing up the ball. and PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE...if you bond with the ball and make it a part of your hand you will never have to worry about dribbling again..lol

Answer 3

Yup, these guys are both right.

Bend your knees

Use your fingertips not your palm

Practice dribbling without looking down on the ball; maybe you are just not comfortable with dribbling. - dribbling fast is not everything, you need to be able to see whats happening on the rest of the court

Practice dribbling so you get a good feel for it. In any activity getting a good feel for a motion is better than having to think about it

Answer 4

In order to do that you have to practice dribbling until you know you can handle the ball well enough. Once you've done that you keep your hand on the back of the ball and let it roll in your fingertips as you run, as you run push the ball ahead of you.
