Stationary Ball-Handling Warm-Up

A two-minute stationary ball-handling warm-up to open practice: figure-eight dribbles, pound dribbles, and control dribbles around the waist and each leg. It's simple on purpose — the goal is just to get the ball moving in players' hands and their heart rate up before the real work starts, the same way pros go through a stationary ball-handling routine before tip-off.

This drill comes from Coach Ashworth.
