Basket Ball Moves

Basketball players typically use individual moves called "basketball moves" to get past competitors and pass the ball to a teammate so they may score.

Dribble:

Dribbling is frequently bouncing the ball without holding it with one hand at a time. To move while in control of the ball, one must dribble.

Crossover:

The ball handler uses a single dribble to transfer the ball from one hand to the other during a crossover. When shifting direction, a typical dribbling move is the crossover. A crossover is most effective when the ball handler looks and acts like they are going in one way before crossing over to the other.

Between the legs:

In the commonly used crossover version, the player with the ball bounces it off the ground between their legs and catches it with their other hand on the other side of their body. It is a more secure method of crossing over against a defender.
