    Dunking
    I am 5foot 11 inches tall.I have tried dunking the basketball a thousand times but never succeeded.
    1) Is my height enough to dunk the basketball?
    2) Could you give me some tips to improve my basketball dribbling and dunking?

    To dribble better, exercise dirbbling without looking at the ball. Sound simple? It is. Your brain will respond to the challenge and you will become a more competent dribbler.

    As for dunking. There's a possible 2 reasons;
    You can jump high enough. (in which case I recommend Dunknow)
    You can't palm the ball 1 handed. (in which case, dunk 2 handed)

    You ARE tall enough.
    Do Google searches on increasing vertical jump if you can't pay for a program.
    You must train a ton! You won't be able to dunk after a few days. You must work for weeks and months. But that might not be what you wanted to hear.
