Disagree with our list? Let us know your thoughts!

Nash, "Not athletic by any means", but Nash, "So fast, quick, and able to change directions so quickly he was one of the most evasive point guards in history, and amazing hand/eye coordination." Sounds like the definition of athletic to me...

Defender reaches the ball: Kyrie: You reach, I teach, YOU KNOW THE RULES.

#10 Isiah Thomas (0:16) #9 Steve Nash (0:55) #8 Tim Hardaway (1:47) #7 Chris Paul (2:21) #6 James Harden (3:12) #5 Jason Williams (4:11) #4 Stephen Curry (4:55) #3 Jamal Crawford (5:50) #2 Allen Iverson (6:35) #1 Kyrie Irving (7:48)

Kyrie Irving is definitely one of the greatest ball handler I've ever watched,He moves around the court like no one can stop him, Unbelievable moves👏👏👏

At only 6' and 165lbs Allen Iverson was a ruthless ankle breaker 💯

Ngl Pete Maravich should be in this list he was doing things nba players do today in the 70s he was ahead of his time 💯

"Pistol" Pete Marovich was doing all these moves we see now 40 plus years ago. He was a true magician with the basketball and was a pure shooter as well. This list is good for the modern era or the past 20 years, but not all time.

Joe Johnson is never talked about when handling the rock, but Iso-Joe deserves a mention. Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf, Brandon Roy, Mark Price, Tony Parker and his ridiculous spin move, and Rod Strickland deserve some love, too.

Harden has a Ph.D. in Culture, Tourism, and Globalization. coz he travels so much.

Iverson got the nastiest ankle breakers in history

It's a great list. Nice work. To be truly historical though almost have to have Pistol Pete and maybe even Bob Cousy in there. Baron Davis and Stevie Franchise come to mind as honorable mentions.

I definitely disagree with your comment about James Harden never making it far in the playoffs. They were one game shy of the NBA finals when they eventually lost in game 7 against the Golden State Warriors in the Western Conference Finals in 2018.

Jamal is raw, love to see him play in highlight reels

D. Rose ball handling is so underrated

Marques Haynes of the Globetrotters exceeds them all - especially those from the 1980's onward who carry the ball, palm the ball, and execute similar cross-over actions which, in all levels of basketball in prior years, would have been called violations in the travelling category.

This list is handsdown the best selection 💪👍🤜🤛

I played against Jamal Crawford in High school (same graduating year). I have never personally played against anyone more talented. He would routinely dribble through our enitre defense (5 players).

Kyrie: Slick handles to create a great shot Steph: Great shooting that made his handles harder to guard

Kyrie's turnaround fadeaway is unguardable and is underrated

Great list. !!!

Kyrie Irving defies logic. The more off-balanced defenses try to make him, the better his handle gets.

Pistol Pete was the original Mr. Showtime. Insane ball handling skills.

John Stockton is underrated. Not that flashy, but very effective ball handler.

Isaiah Thomas needs to be much higher on this list…his game is what inspired all these other guys. Besides, he played in a era that was much more physical and still won 2 Rings!! I wonder how some of these guys would fare if hand checking was still legal?

Magic at 6'9" spinning at full speed then going behind the back and making a pinpoint pass!!!! Magic is never mentioned as a ball handler but he should watch the highlights of magic making moves at full speed the in and out dribble ,changing directions,etc.......magic should be top 10

Pete Maravich literally invented moves in basketball, he should be in top 3

Steve Francis. Definitely underrated. And should of made that list.

Thing about Kyrie, not only elite handle but the one thing that sets him apart is he is always reading anticipating the defense a couple steps ahead down to exposing their defensive weaknesses

Nash is athletic AF btw. He excelled in multiple sports. Not jumping high doesn't mean not athletic.

Glad to see Isiah get some love, he’s extremely underrated.

Imagine saying James Harden has "never made it far in the playoffs" when he's been in the NBA Finals before.... wtf

Totally agreed with this ranking

Kemba Walker handlings are so underrated☹️

starbury, alston, strickland all super underrated too

Very nice video

Was kinda expecting Stephon Marbury to be on this list at like 10 or 9 but I can’t argue with any of your picks! Great list!

8:22 "Layup package deeper than mariana trench" sounds hilarious but its the best metaphor to describe Kyrie's ability😂😂

My favorite sports channel

I didn't like how you describe AI-3 as a fan who modeled my game on his But all the rest was funny acurate and well thought and i can't be more ok with your ending with Kyrie Great Job and thx

I love how you said " all the ball carrying that is allowed today" ! ✊🏾😎

I remember getting floor tickets and I gotta look at AI up personal. Absolutely incredible

I love these I've binged these for like hours😂

100% agree with this list

this was made on my birthday

I played with Iverson once at a community center in Hampton, VA and he is an incredible player. If you miss shots he will clown you.

Gotta put Pete Maravich on the list he dominate the other PG in 70's

1-isaiah thomas...2-pete maravich...3-tim hardaway...4-rod strickland...5-jason williams...6-mark price...7-kyrie irving...8-micheal ray richardson...9-steve colter...10-nate archabald

Honorable mention goes to Calvin Murphy. Hall of Fame career using his amazing quickness and ball handling skills at 5’9”.

3:45..them Harden bars😂😂. Sheesh! My man deserves a raise ☝️

I’d have Pistol on my list but about it, great list and hard agree on #1

6:30 Crawford just crossed up my eyes with that twitch dawg

Probably the best top 10 list I’ve ever seen… only thing I would’ve done is added a honorable mention bcuz pistol Pete should be mentioned…

CP3 should be ranked higher solely because of his low TO. If the title was top 10 "dribblers", I have no complains. But since it says "ball handlers", then TOs should be accounted for (ball security).

Isiah Thomas mentioned at number ten is an outrage.

How can you forget Tyrone Mugsy Bouges. He was one of the greats at his position. He belongs in the Hall Of Fame.

Iverson is definitely the best in crossovers, no one can move like he do.

Great list, I would like to honorable mention Magic Johnson. 6'9 spinning in traffic, wheeling, and dealing in showtime.

i like this list...

Props for putting Steve Nash. ❤

I wish you would have put Derick Rose in this line up! Still enjoyed the video! Thanks

Loved the thought behind your lineup. Can’t hate on it. Great job

Nice list... Nick Van Exel, Kenny Anderson & Rod Strickland... 3 of the best dribblers I’ve ever seen.

Crawford's crossover is somehow underrated. I still remember his scary injury though.

Two major grips with this list: 1. No Pistol Pete is intolerable disrespect 2. Calling Harden "one of the best offensive players ever"....C'MON SON! Maybe, MAYBE with a few added caveats like off the dribble, or shot creator, then you MIGHT have am argument. But strictly offense with no qualifications? No way is he top 5. I enjoyed the video though. Props on he content.

Glad to know that I'm not the only one who thinks that the way Irving dribbles the ball is exactly the same as that old uncle Drew guy.

Irving is terrific, I would add Maravich and I would put Thomas higher, one of the best 6' 1" ft player

The amount of rings between these guys is... stunning

Perfect. I agree with you. Irving is the talent.

Non-stop Sports cuz it gives us contact that I actually like and that's absolutely true

Respect mentioning Hardaway!...god father of the cross over. Jason Kidd, Stephon Marbury, baron davis and pistol Pete deserve honorable mentions.

You guys need to stop saying players aren't athletic just because they don't have a 40+" leap. You say Nash wasn't athletic by any means, then contradict yourself by describing his speed and dexterity. Dude played ice hockey as a youth and basketball, soccer and rugby in high school.

Y'all forgot Tiny Archibald, Skip to my Lou, Pistol Pete, and you probably never saw Kevin porter the original assist leader of the NBA. there's more too although his offense sucked Ray Felton had a serious handle too.

I definitely can agree with the list I also see alot of Rod Strickland in Kyries handles he's actually his Godfather so I'm sure he gave him a few pointers

Amazing ball handlers there...I really couldn't see how to guard Irving one on one...he can Cross you on several ways ,he can pump fake you in the paint and score ,he can shoot three ,he can pass the ball on the right spot,he can make you to foul him, I mean he can make embarecmant looks good on you while you playing against him lol

AI has the killer crossover of all time.. Nobody beats The Answer when it comes to crossover

Not all NBA history but interesting list

Honorable Mention: Stephon Marbury and his spin passes.

God Shammgod was amazing at handling the rock too

Kyrie, Kyrie, Kyrie, Kyrie Irving 🔥 🔥

This comment section is 3600 strong, and the video is 2 years old, so I doubt this will even get addressed. But I actually had a hot take on the best NBA ball handlers OAT yesterday. All these guards are incredible with the rock. But if I were to choose the best, it's definitely #1 on this list. Even though his handle is flashy, Kyrie does something that not all ball handlers do. Most ball handlers have quickness, especially changing direction, but their movements are to find space and/or draw the defense. That's why a good number of players on this list are known for their assist proficiency. They want to make space. This gives them options when attempting to score. From there, you get guys who have outstanding court vision who can dish it off (Nash, Paul, and Williams), guys who can come off the dribble for a shot (Harden and Curry), and guys who had pure instinctual talent, becoming the go-to firearm whenever their team needs a shot (AI and Crawford). Albeit with a fair share of ball hogging. All these guys, though, seem as though control of the ball is their highest priority. Which... of course, right? You're a ball handler, you aim to control the ball well. Watch Kyrie play. Where all the others on this list have insane control of the ball, Kyrie seems more like he just has more body control/physical awareness than any other pro, ever. The ball handling is the byproduct, not the movement. I think this is what makes him so dangerous. He takes every moment to put the ball where he wants, somewhere the defender can't reach it. But his moves don't ever seem... planned. He figures where he wants to go, reads the defense, and uses his amazing dexterity to execute. He almost handles a basketball the way Barry Sanders ran a football. You know he'll do something amazing, but it will be in a way you've never seen before, even from him, simply because he only operates in the moment. That's the best way I can describe it. I'm sure some will disagree, but it can't be understated that very few, if any, players of professional basketball (and pro sports in general) have the body control Kyrie has. Looking over all my favorite ball handlers, they all have a unique approach to dribbling. They broke the mold once Kyrie put his bid in to enter the league. And this concludes my useless analysis.

Havent watched yet but ai gotta be on here and Dl

This list is missing Pete "Pistol" Maravich

Kyrie's Dribble looks like Uncle Drew Commercial. 😏 hahaha

ISO JOE dude . That move against Pierce was sweet

ISIAH LORD THOMAS should have been ranked MUCH higher. RARELY got his pocket picked and was better than most rated ahead of him. 😉

This dude giving us breakdowns on Anime characters with special basketball traits 😂😂😂

John Wall is almost Kyrie level in ball handling, he should definitely be in this list

Degrees in the game of basketball, funniest shit I've heard in a while

D Will is an underrated ball handler

Rod Strickland is the best point not on this list. He taught his nephew (Kyrie) how to ball.

a "sexy euro step" 😂😂

Shame no Marbury. Thought Pistol Pete woulda made it too, considered they called the slightest travel back then.

I love this list but you gotta move Isaiah Thomas a little bit higher

“Bachelor’s degree on people crossing over, a master’s degree on euro stepping to the basket and a PhD on drawing foul” DEM BARS ARE HILARIOUS 🤣🤣

You overlooked Maravich, and Cousey.

It's all in the name. Ball. Handling. Steve Nash made it seem like the ball was an extension of his body without being too flashy or using a lot of crossovers.

The disrespect to my man Deron Williams is crazy. . Easily one of the best ball handlers of all time. . His crossover was dangerous. . Also special mention to Lance Stephenson who gets JIGGY with the ball. . & Steve Francis who’s handles is underrated

can we take a moment to see how underrated KYRIE is as a defender

Lmao @ j crossover not being keen on passing 🤣🤣
