Freez a defender in one position

A simple crossover that leaves a defender wondering what just happened.

Instructions

It doesn’t matter if you right or left handed but now we’ll use the left hand. Come running towards the defender as you come closer to him, pretend you about to do a left hand crossover same time use your shoulders to show the crossover then (either the defender will try to rich in for the ball try to knock it away from you) keep driving to your left either for a pull-up for a jumper, lay up or to a teammate for an easy basket. When the defender tries to stop you he will either get a blocking foul or rich in foul when the move is done right.

Variations

It gets your opponents in foul trouble and those that like to play tight “D” on people keep trying to guess wheather you about to cross him over or going to fake a crossover and keep driving in same direction.

Tips

This move might sound corney but people how know it already know what I mean. Keep trying it and once you get it, you will see how effective it could be during your game times especially in crunch time.

Skills

Know how to make fake hard steps either left or right sametime using your shoulders.
