I want to try out for the basketball team next year in high school. I’m 13 by the way. How can I make my defender bite on fakes more and cross em more? I watch vids of Allen Iverson, Stephon Marbury, Jason Williams, Deron Williams, etc. but I just can’t do it. And I practice.
For a quicker first step and a better crossover, keep your torso forward and your knees bent. Make fakes short and sharp, not big, long and slow.
you should also do sqauts to jump higher then do track and get faster
look up drills on you tube. but dont look at marbury and iverson cuz they over exert themselves and sometimes carry. if you put to much motion and a high dribble in a crossover your begging to get get stripped. just keep the dribble low, cross it fast, and dont over do it
