A good way to start to develop your weak hand in ball handling is by working out with two basketballs at once.  To start, keep it simple with some two ball pounds and then as you progress add some of the other dribbles that can be seen in the video below.  Try to be creative with this and challenge yourself with new dribbles and moves, and if you come up with any others that are not seen in the video feel free to let me know in the comments section.  Thanks and enjoy.
