I can't dribble with my left hand?

Question

It is very frustrating because it makes me very predictable when i always go to the right side. How can i learn to be fancy and creative with my left hand ?

Answer 1

it takes a lot of practice but eventually if you work hard enough it will pay off because i used to be in the same situation and finally learned how to dribble with my left but couldnt do a lay up with my left hand but i got it after hard work so just keep working hard

Answer 2

Practice! It will be hard at first, but if you just practice with your left hand for at least 10 minutes a day, you will get better and better as time goes on. I had the same problem, but after about 2 weeks of practice, I became better.

Answer 3

jus dribble alot

Answer 4

Try passing the ball.  Make your predictability work for you.  If the defense knows you're going right, that should create openings on your left.  Have someone cut behind you on your left, and pass it to them.  They should have a clear shot.  

Eventually, the defense will have to stop overplaying you, and that will free you up again to your right.

Answer 5

Do as many ball handling drills as you can and dribble everywhere as much as possible.

Answer 6

just keep on trying and soon u will be able to dribble with your left hand then u should try to drive in with your land hand

Answer 7

When u practice on the playground, consistently dribble with your left. Shoot with the left. Just practice at it all day, everyday.The more comfortable u are the more confidence u will have. Whether it be driving a car, studying for a test, or whatever else. Practice makes perfect. Just dribble as much as u can with the left.

Answer 8

a lot of people have this problem. i did too early on. What you want to do is include your left hand in your dribbling slowly. Start out dribbling with your right hand, and then switch hands and dribble with your left once or twice, and then back to the right. Once you can do that, try dribbling only with your left hand, walking in circles. Its basic i know, but it what you need to do if you want to do fancy tricks.

Answer 9

Im not sure how old u are but if ur young u should try to dribble everywhwere that u go....Like the Bus stop in the morning. Carry a ball with u everywhere u go and dribble with the left only
