As you’d expect from a basketball game, there are loads of passing options available to you. You can bounce pass, lob pass, or even do something a bit more complex like a flashy pass or a leap to basket pass.

The fake pass though can be particularly useful, especially if you’re able to play quickly. You can pretend you’re passing one way before stopping, often moving an opponent’s player to where that pass would have gone, opening up space elsewhere in the attacking part of the court.

If you’re quick about it, you can fool defenders and open up opportunities for other passes or quick attempts at scoring some points.
