Basketball Ball Handling

I’m often asked for advice on basketball ball handling. Here’s a“  coaching tip from Sam that will pay huge dividends with your team.

Here is Sam’s idea:
I call it the turnover drill.
I use this basketball drill in practice when my guards are not taking care of the basketball–Lazy passes, too fancy of passes, etc.
“ 
I have them all line up at mid-court (the entire team) and run as fast as they can toward me.  I have the basketball.  When they are just about to get to the freethrow line I throw the ball the other direction and they have to go get it.  Hence turnover.  I do this about ten times and we return to our practice. It makes them think about the result of a bad pass. 
It is a good conditioning drill also.
