Coach Dan Speaks:

Russian twists are a basketball drill that helps players build their core strength and agility. The drill is easy to do; start by sitting on the floor with your feet lifted off the ground, then hold a basketball in your hands, and rotate your body while keeping the ball in contact with the ground. Not only does this work out your core muscles and develop dribbling skills, it also builds up overall muscle endurance. This simple yet effective basketball drill can help take any basketball career to the next level — be sure to include it in regular workouts!
