How is a pull back crossover performed?

In basketball, a crossover is the act of dribbling the ball from side to side. There are several different variations of the move that can be used during a game. One of the different types is known as the pullback crossover dribble. Instead of a side to side crossover, the ball handler will pull the ball back towards their body.

There are two things you want to keep in mind when doing a pull back crossover. Number one is the actual act of dribbling the ball back. An easy way to think about it is if you imagine the ball is a yo-yo. It must be dribbled in front of you and then pulled back. The next piece to keep in mind is your transfer of weight. If you were to just pull it back you would not be able to fool the defender. You need to make the defender believe you are about to go forward, and then you can pull it back.

Once you’ve mastered the basic steps of performing a pull back crossover, you can begin to perfect the move. Some things you can think about are where your eyes are looking and where your body is turning. Both head fakes and body fakes are useful for misdirecting the defender, and leaving them guessing as to where you are going.
