Ethan Khoza breaks down a ball-handling progression: pull the ball to your pocket, vary where you dribble, exaggerate your reach, add exchanges like between-the-legs, work in a tight space, then take it on the move.
I'm just repeatedly pulling that ball. Imagine, like, I have a hoodie jacket, and I'm pulling that ball to that pocket there. Now we're doing the same thing, but you're going to mix up your spot where you dribble every time. So I might go there pulling it to my pocket. I want to go somewhere new every time. If that's too easy, you can start to really exaggerate it. So I might really let that ball reach out to the point where it's hard to control it and bring it back. So now we're going to do the same thing, but this time we're going to get to an exchange. So off of that pull, I'm gonna go either with a between or behind the back. So there. So now we do the same thing, but we're gonna move in this general area. So I have anything there, but I'm mixing in those holes. Now we're gonna do the same thing, but it's gonna be on the move so I can go forward with it. So I have full freestyle, but I'm mixing in.
