Sometimes there's the urge to play sports and games like Basketball Stars help with that.

You can play either against the AI or someone locally to show off all kinds of ballin' skill.
How to play Basketball Stars
Basketball Stars is a simple but engaging version of basketball that can get pretty competitive the more that you play. Both you and your friend can share the keyboard is you decide to play against each other. The controls are completely keyboard-based and are as follows:
Player 1 Controls:
- W: Jump/Shoot
