ABSTRACT:
A toy basketball game having a court floor, a stand attached to the floor for a backboard ring and net, an articulated player and a movable base for the player. The player contains a compressible spring in one leg which is held compressed by a lever on the player's leg, which lever releases the spring to cause the player to jump and to raise its arm having in its hand a releasable ball, which ball releases when the player's arm contacts the ring of the basketball basket. The base has a rotatable wedge-shaped plate for changing the angle of jump of the player so as to cause the player to be projected toward the ring from any location of its stand on the court. If desired, the ring and the arm of the player may be provided with adhering roughened surfaces so that the player can hang on the ring.
