ABSTRACT:
A basketball return apparatus to return a basketball passing through a hoop to the shooter irrespective of the location from the basketball court from which the basketball was shot. A mounting bracket is removably coupled to the bracket which secures the basketball hoop to the backboard. The counting plate depends vertically downwardly from the bracket and is integral with an intermediate forwardly extending panel. The intermediate forwardly extending panel is integral with the primary deflection panel which forwardly extends beneath the basketball hoop and to a point forwardly from the basketball hoop. The deflection panel extends laterally beyond the diameter of the hoop to allow deflection of basketballs passing through the basketball hoop at an oblique angle.
