IAABO Survey Says …

IAABO International Play Commentary: Correct Answer: This is an illegal dribble.

Green #23 executes a "crossover" dribble to maneuver past the primary defender to get into the lane to attempt a try. As he begins this move, the ball comes to rest in his right hand, and he "carries" the ball across his body to the left before dropping the ball and continuing to dribble. The dribble ends when the dribbler allows the ball to come to rest in one or both hands. When he dribbles again, it is considered an illegal dribble. A dribbler can execute this move legally by keeping his/her hand on top of the ball as they push the ball to the floor.

This illegal move is fairly common in our game, and you rarely see a violation ruled for this infraction. 65% of respondents correctly identified this as a violation. How many of you would actually make the ruling on the court?


Here is the breakdown of the IAABO members that commented on the video: This is an illegal dribble 65% (including me); This is not an illegal dribble 35%.
