Basketball Stars

Basketball Stars is a two player basketball game about dunks, three pointers and a supershot. It skips the playbook, the coaching staff and the salary cap, and gets straight to the good part, which is putting the ball through the hoop in the most embarrassing way possible for your opponent.

You pick a team, enter a tournament, and then it is you against the opposition on a court small enough for every mistake to be very public.

How to Play Basketball Stars?

Attack by driving to the basket for a dunk or pulling up for a three pointer. On defense you can block, and you can also slap your opponent to knock them down and take the ball, which Basketball Stars not only allows but actively encourages.

Keep an eye on the supershot bar at the top of the screen. When it fills up you can fire off a special dunk from anywhere on the court, and according to the developer it never misses. Save it for a close finish and enjoy the moment.

Tips and Tricks:

• Save the supershot: It never fails, so it is worth far more in a tight finish than in the first minute.
• Steal before you block: Knocking your opponent down and taking the ball turns their attack into yours in one move.
• Mix up your shots: Alternate dunks with three pointers so the defense cannot just camp under the basket.

What Are the Controls for Basketball Stars?

• Move and jump: the arrow keys
• Block or pump fake: the Down arrow
• Steal or shoot: X
• Supershot: Z, once the bar is full

These are the keys the developer lists for Basketball Stars, which also runs on phones and tablets.
