In every sporting event, there is usually at least one person who controls much of the game. In ball sports, this person will usually have the ball for the longest time. Sometimes, this can be annoying for other players because they don’t get to do as much. However, when your team needs points, it can be good to have a ball-dominant player on your team.

When a player is ball dominant, they have the ball the most. In the game of basketball, this usually means that they can move the ball up or down the court very quickly for their team. Chris Paul of the Houston Rockets is one of these players. He won many awards because he is so good. However, people sometimes complain because he controls so much of the game.

Are you a ball-dominant player? How do you feel when someone else is ball dominant?
