Shot Meter Zones

Three-Point Scoring
On both the Courtyard and Indoor Basketball courts, there are large semi-circles(the yellow line indoors and one of the white lines in the courtyard) that form a perimeter around the hoops on each side of the court.

These semi-circles are your Three-Point Lines.

They represent the perimeter by which any shot made past them(closer to the half-court line) will count for 3 points, however any shots made closer to the goal will instead only court for 2 points.

---

Defensive Pressure:
Shot timing isn't the only factor. An active defender's positioning and pressure can reduce the shooter's chance of making the basket.

• Open shots are easier to make.
• Lightly contested shots are more difficult.
• Heavily contested shots are significantly harder to score.
• Strong pressure can lower shooting effectiveness even on otherwise decent releases.

Creating space before shooting is often just as important as timing the shot itself.

Ball Handling:
Several dribble moves let you create separation and outmaneuver defenders.

• X — Bounce-Back Dribble
• Z + X — Behind-the-Back Dribble
• C + X — Alternate Behind-the-Back Dribble
• Backspace — Drop the Ball
• Ball in right hand, C+C — Right Spin Move
• Ball in left hand, Z+Z— Left Spin Move
• Z or X — Swap ball to other hand.
• Client Sided Numbers are assigned to teammates, pressing a corresponding number allows you to pass to the teammate

Combining dribble moves helps break through defenses and create open shooting opportunities.

Defense:
Defense plays a major role in stopping opponents from scoring.

• RMB (Right Mouse Button) — Defensive Stance
• F — Screen (Off-Ball)
• R— Steal (Off-Ball)
• Space — Block (Off-Ball)

Holding RMB puts your character in a defensive stance, letting you guard the ball handler, contest shots, cut off driving lanes, and apply pressure. The closer and more effectively you defend, the harder their shot becomes.
