How to do a Crossover by Brooks Spears

Firstly, you must find a basketball, preferably a pumped-up ball that has plenty of bounce.
Secondly, you should grab the basketball and start dribbling it with either hand.
Then, after you have begun dribbling with some consistency, start dribbling with the other hand.
After that, practice dribbling the ball between both hands.
Now it's time to add some footwork.
Practice moving side to side using your legs, incorporating your arms and adding head fakes in conjunction with the ball's position.
Now try to add fluidity to your lateral movements, while also fluctuating speed and and lateral reach.
This part will take practice in getting a feel as to how it will affect your defender's movement.
Once you understand this and are capable of effectively altering your defender's position, try to either take a shot or quickly brush past your opponent when you have distanced yourself.
Congratulations, you have learned the art of a simple crossover.
