Find a ledge like a curb or any ledge that is sturdy and has a dropoff of about 4 or more inches.

Place your toes on the ledge and let your heels hang over the ledge.

Lower your heels below the ledge and then lift them back up by pushing your toes down and raising your heels.

This works your calf muscles and will also improve your ankle problems.

It is almost impossible to strengthen you ankles. Once you sprain one, it is more likely to sprain again. If I were you, I would tape them or wear cloth ankle braces for support.

all you can do is support them now the will eventually get a little stronger srry I couldn't help that much

Wear an ankle support brace, or wrap it with an ace bandage. When you are playing basketball, wear the high-top shoes, I bet you already do though.

Ride a stationary bike for 30 minutes a day.
Also Jump Rope 20 minutes a day also :)

Good luck:
