Ball Handling Drills: Lunge Ball Manipulation with Jordan Lawley

Our partner Jordan Lawley breaks down a great ball handling progression called Lunge Ball Manipulation. This drill focuses on balance and manipulating the ball in the air. Check out the full demonstration in the video below!

Lunge Ball Manipulation

• The drill starts with players in a controlled lunge stance. Balancing weight between the back and lead leg.
• Next, players will manipulate the ball over their lead leg.
• Then players will work on manipulating the ball over their lead leg and crossing the ball back between the legs.
• Players will do this move for 30 seconds with the right leg in front and 30 seconds with the left leg in the front.
