Gameplay[]
In Street Hoop players can choose between ten different teams; in the American version the teams are based around American cities, while in the European and Japanese versions of the game they're based around countries. The teams are composed by three players, each of them having its unique statistics for speed, defense, dunking ability and 3-points throws.
The game follows the basic basketball rules, with the addition of a special move which can be pulled off after the player makes four points; when used the player makes a flashy, acrobatic maneuver which automatically scores a point.
