Basketball has an unusually precise origin story: Dr. James Naismith invented it in December 1891 at a Massachusetts YMCA, nailing two peach baskets to a railing to keep his gym class busy through the winter. Basketball Shootout distills that into a pure two-tap shot: lock your angle, lock your power, and see how many of your 10 shots you can sink.
Don't chase 3-pointers on every attempt — a couple of reliable 2-point makes beat missing several tougher shots in a row.
Why are some shots worth 3 points instead of 2?
Shots taken from further back or from a tighter angle score 3 points instead of 2, mirroring real basketball's line, and rewarding harder attempts over easy ones.
How many shots do I get?
Each session is 10 shots. Your total points across all 10 attempts is your final score.
Does Basketball Shootout support real-time matches against a friend?
Yes. Challenge a friend for a live head-to-head, or warm up solo against your own best score first.
