Palming the Basketball

[crew]

to extend on this situation a bit. players at higher levels that have the ability to palm the ball(hold the ball with one hand) they use that method of throwing the defender on his heels, and driving around uncontested. this is a very difficult play to pick up. when we are taught to ref the D the offensive player is a bit less observed for rule infractions, most dont know this but those who do have a slight advantage.
