How to Play Basketball Stars
Use the Mouse:
Control your player by moving the mouse. Click or hold to jump, shoot, or steal depending on your position. The timing of your click determines your shot’s success — release too early and you’ll miss, hold too long and your opponent might grab the rebound.
Use the Keyboard:
In some versions, you can move with the arrow keys or A/D keys and jump or shoot using the spacebar. Mix mouse and keyboard inputs for better reaction time, especially in competitive matches.
