backyard basketball court

The backyard basketball court is a bit worn but full of character, with faded lines and a slightly bent hoop that still catches the ball just right. It's where the neighborhood kids gather after school, shoes scuffling on the concrete, the rhythmic bounce echoing off the fence. The old oak tree leans over one corner, dropping leaves that scatter across the court like confetti. Even with a crack running through the middle, everyone knows exactly where to stand for the perfect shot.
