I’m sure everyone who has played Pick-up Basketball in their life, has met at least two or three of these stereotypes. Really funny and a nice kick-off to the upcoming article series of Streetball Legends of the past and present. Enjoy!

Basketball has been my passion for as long as I can remember: playing, coaching, and learning every step of the way. Layups.com is here to inspire and guide players, coaches, and parents with practical tips, fresh ideas, and real-life insights. From drills and motivation to coaching wisdom and player development, this is your space to grow your game and love the sport even more.
Genius.
I’d also add the “Constantly-travelling” guy, the “Chubby-and-slow-but-thinks-he’s-all-that” guy, the “no-shirt-and-sweats-a-lot” guy, and last but certainly not least, the type that you only see outside the US – the soccer playing weirdo wearing soccer shoes, that can only dribble with one hand, and hits either the board or nothing, but still takes 80% of the team’s shots.
Bottom line, you guys (and girl. Definitely the girl too) are awesome! Really fun to watch.
