Big game moments
A player hangs on the rim above a packed arena, drawn from below so the sneakers loom large, and another shoots from half court as the crowd rises and the ball arcs toward the hoop.
Basketball Coloring Pages
24 free PDFsThese basketball pages cover the whole game: a dunk seen from under the rim in a packed arena, an alley-oop at the rim, a buzzer-beater launched from half court, a scramble for a rebound and a crossover dribble past a defender. A wheelchair basketball player shoots from a sports chair, and a pickup game fills a city court with brick apartments and a rooftop water tower behind.
Quieter pages show the places and gear around the game, from a hoop over a garage door and a gym bag on a locker room bench to a team bench where the coach draws a play. For more detail there are a basketball mandala, a zentangle ball dropping through a hoop and a stained glass dunk. Start with the six picks below or browse every basketball page, then download the free PDF.

Things to make with your basketball coloring pages
Color your team
Pick two team colors and use them on the jersey page and on every player in the game pages. Keep the ball orange and the court a warm wood tone so the uniforms stand out.
Plan a play
On the court seen from above, mark where five players stand and add arrows for one passing play, just like the coach with the clipboard on the team bench page.
Hold a paper free-throw contest
Color the swishing net page, tape it above a wastebasket and take turns tossing balls of scrap paper from a line on the floor. Color one star on the page for each basket.
Each picture is an individual vector PDF. Print on US Letter, or choose “Fit to page” for A4. Try one copy first to check the margins.
