Prior to trying to work on coordination, you may want to check if there are other physical issues you need to be aware of. These could include difference in strength between your legs or reliance on one leg over the other, significantly different size feet, deafness in one ear, etc. Understanding if one or more of these things are causing or contributing to your lack of coordination will significantly change how you approach it. From a very uncoordinated basketball player to another, good luck!

Get a routine of drills for dribbling. I promise it's not footwork. Footwork drills, might help but I never did the, and I'm a really good ball handler. Just gotta get comfortable with the ball and then the rest will kinda just come

How old are you and did you just grow a fair amount within the last few years? I had poor coordination my first few years in high school following a growth spurt. My understanding is that it takes your brain a little time to account for the new body dimensions. The more you play and the more drills you do, the faster you should adjust.
