What are some fun basketball games to play with friends?

Here are a few fun basketball games you can try: Horse, Knockout, and 21. Do you want to know the rules for any of these?

Yes, can you explain how to play Knockout?

Sure! In Knockout, players line up at the free-throw line. The first two players have a basketball, and they try to make a shot. If the first player makes it, they pass the ball to the next player. If they miss, the second player can try to make a shot before the first player rebounds. If the second player makes it first, the first player is 'knocked out'!

That sounds fun! How many players do you need for it?

You can play Knockout with as few as 3 players, but it's more fun with 5 or more. The more, the merrier!

Are there any variations of Knockout?

Yes! One variation is to add a 'bank shot' rule, where players must make their shots off the backboard. Another is to allow players to choose different shooting spots.
