Holding the ball is one of the very important movements in basketball. Whether they are foreign basketball players or domestic players, they need to master the correct ball holding posture to ensure ball control and dribble stability.
A good ball holding posture requires both hands to firmly grasp the basketball and naturally open fingers to increase the stability of the ball. The palm should be in full contact with the basketball and gently apply force with your fingers to ensure that the ball does not slip off. In addition, the arms are extended at a 45-degree angle to provide enough space for more flexibility in dribbling.
The body posture of foreign basketball players is also one of the important aspects that need to be paid attention to in holding the ball. The body should be kept upright with the foot spacing equal to the width of the shoulders to increase body stability. Spread your feet slightly apart so you can change your movements at any time. At the same time, bend your knees slightly to reduce the vibration and impact when dribbling.
In the ball holding position, foreign basketball players should keep their eyes looking forward and focused. This helps accurately determine the position of teammates and opponents and respond accordingly. At the same time, it is important to maintain stability in the head and neck, which can prevent the risk of accidental sprain.
A good holding posture requires a combination of correct dribbling skills. When dribbling, the ball holding posture should be continuous and stable so that the ball can be passed smoothly in your hand. During the dribbling process, foreign basketball players can use the power of the body to make the speed and strength of the ball more stable and powerful through the coordinated movement of the waist, arms and wrists.
The ball holding posture of foreign basketball players requires a firm grasp of the correct way to hold the ball with both hands, a stable body posture and accurate eye gaze. Only in this way can they better control the ball during the game, pass the ball, and show their strength in offense and defense.
