Is this drill for you?
For intermediate ballhandlers (Level 3) going two-ball - ankle, knee, and shoulder heights, then alternating into simultaneous crosses, BTL, and BTB.
The ladder: Ankle, knee, and shoulder heights first, then alternate-to-cross, alternate-to-between, and alternate-to-behind.
Variations: Slow down until both balls stay synced.
In a game: Two balls punish a lazy weak hand - your off hand has to keep up or the drill collapses.
