How can i get my basketball hands better(catching)

Question

i catch a football very well started wide reciever this year and everything but catching a basketball in transition is a little harder for some reason

Answer 1

You need to focus on making the catch. Your probably focused on making the shot so much that you get distracted and dont make the catch. I used to have that problem. You will get better in time. Focus on catching   it first.  

Answer 2

you suck donkey balls

Answer 3

practice? by catching small balls lol. try  catching a tennis ball then when you play with a basketball much bigger it wont be a big deal. Or if you play basketball league practice by buying a game ball and practice catching it so you will be ready for the game.

bounce the ball off the wall and catch it or get a friend/family member to throw it to you.
