While many basketball courts can be seen through the series, only [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]] allows the player to actually play basketball. The player can score points by throwing the ball into a basketball hoop — the farther the distance, the more points the player gets — but has little to benefit from it other than bragging rights | While many basketball courts can be seen through the series, only [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]] allows the player to actually play basketball. The player can score points by throwing the ball into a basketball hoop — the farther the distance, the more points the player gets — but has little to benefit from it other than having bragging rights. The player can also do tricks like spinning the ball with [[Carl Johnson|CJ's]] finger, or executing [[wp:slam dunk|slam dunk]]s by moving closer towards the hoop. | ||
Although the player can't play with others and can only play with him/herself in GTA San Andreas, they can activate a mini-challenge to attain the most number of scores within an allocated time. The ability to play basketball is unlocked after completing the mission "[[Tagging Up Turf]]", when basketballs may appear in basketball courts. In the original PS2 version, it is available in the beginning. | Although the player can't play with others and can only play with him/herself in GTA San Andreas, they can activate a mini-challenge to attain the most number of scores within an allocated time.
