"Basketball and drawing are the two best things I'm good at."
That just doesn't sound right? What's the best and most succinct way to say that? Obviously writing's not the 3rd best thing I'm good at. Thanks!

What if I wanted to add on and say they may be the only 2 things I'm good at at all? Do you know a succinct way to say that too?
Like: Basketball and drawing are the two things I'm best at. They might be the only 2 things I'm good at.
Is there even a way to combine it into 1 sentence? Thanks.

"Best" is a comparison, so you can leave it out.
Basketball and drawing are the only things I'm good at.
Your sentences are fine, though, if you want to present it that way.
