Question

Explain the skill of Low Dribble in basketball.

Explain the following term:

Low dribble

Answer 1

A low dribble in basketball is when a player dribbles the ball low to the ground. In order to do this, a player has to dribble the ball more times than a normal dribble. This type of dribbling simply entails keeping the ball low to the floor and in the control of the player. The player should extend the dribbling hand and arm down as much as possible to shorten the distance and the ball needs to be kept tight and in control to keep it from being stolen. The low dribble is to be used whenever the players are closely guarded.
