	~~{{Empty section}}~~		Basketball has significance at [[Minecraft:Woodsword Middle School]], with the school's gym featuring basketball imagery. Another feature of the gym is automated basketball hoops, whose malfunction causes the cancellation of a session of basketball practice. There is a competitive basketball team, of which [[Minecraft:Po Chen]] is a member. The basketball team goes to events at other schools.

			The [[Minecraft:Woodsword Middle School (replica)\|in-game replica of the school]] has a copy of the gym, but one of the walls is not finished. Certain non-player characters in the game world have basketball uniforms.

Basketball is the focus of the third episode, [[Minecraft:AI in Action: Using AI Tools Responsibly]]. The video opens with [[Minecraft:Agent]] and [[Minecraft:Chicken]] watching a trick shot on their tablet, which inspires them to use generative AI to "design [their] own trick shot." They appear at a basketball court and go over their plan: they throw the ball, it goes past several landmarks entire continents away, and then into the net. This is deemed impossible, so they change from a GPS to a chatbot, which gives them a simple bounce maneuver. After giving it more detailed instructions, they come up with an elaborate machine made of many blocks, which almost misses the hoop. Quickly, Chicken rushes into the air, and manages to score.
