since the world cup and olympics are around this time heres two courts i made:

 a team usa themed fiba court. added the nike swooshes to make it feel a little more realistic and "fiba" like with all the advertisements they have. the "we are basketball" is apparently fiba's slogan if anyone's wondering. (also yes i am very aware of how extra this is. but screw it, it's america) happy early 4th of july

----

here's a court concept for the olympic games in tokyo this year. didn't wanna do too much since it's an olympic court but i added some subtle details. a little pattering, some cherry blossoms, and the two big symbols ("Tokyo" in japanese) also thought it'd be funny if i made the center logo just a big red circle. to make the whole court look like the japanese flag. dont ask why some of the lines in the paint are gone either, i don't know i just copied the 2016 olympics court

sorry if anyone's already posted these since this forum is really slow for me now so it's hard for me to go though and check.  but i was scrolling around and found the jerseys in 3d

and apparently the kings earned editions

valley jerseys back, i wonder if that means the same exact jersey or maybe another version. hopefully a  white version, i saw a white version on 2k and it looked gorgeous. i think even better than black since the colors stick out more 

Since i just also made a clippers court here's another one. which is my own take on their current court. i added some much needed color in the paints asymmetrically resembling their jerseys. i also felt like if there's one city that's needs their skyline on a court it's LA. which i found was the perfect opportunity for the clippers since they have a very city themed court already

ps: this is the first skyline silhouette i've used that isn't just one dimensional. and it's the biggest i've ever made, kinda like the recent chicago all star court

courts for the two grey earned edition jerseys. my first grey court designs. i tried to add some details and designing. i think it would have been a nice illusion to see these combined with the jerseys 

^since we're on the topic i think i'll just post the template i use here. (disclaimer: this is not a fully original template made by me) click on the link to see the wood only and paint layers

These courts are outstanding. You've inspirted me to try to have a go at making my own.

 

Hope you don't mind me asking, where's best to get the floor texture?

thank you! and sorry for the late reply, i'm assuming you're asking where i got the floor texture? 

tried out another white court. this one based off the city edition jerseys the wizards used to wear not too long ago. with the marble pattern and obvious washington monument in the middle. also decided to put the geico sponsors since i couldn't find the exact wizards font. (plus their website name is way longer than their social media @)

DC logo alternate:

the mavericks city edition court. my first ever white court. i didn't want it to be so jarring to the eye so i added the shading and all that to tone it down a little bit

What template are you using for these courts?

well i started making court concepts 2 years ago and originally used this knicks court template and obviously edited it https://i.pinimg.com/originals/97/d5/d1/97d5d1b694764ef305a718827f23f9ab.png then edited the edits and over time the lines got thicker cause of the paint bucket tool i used. and i've kinda recreated my own template. i could send it to you if you want

okay okay, last raptors court. couldn't help but be inspired after seeing today's new raptors court with their wood pattern.

it's a fusion of both modern and throwback. modern with the tweaks to the logo and current day colors and font, also the never done before wood pattern. and throwback with the obvious old logo and this version one with the inner arc paint 

2019-2020 city edition

2020-21 city edition

also surprised i didn't do the bulls city edition u til now. more gold less white, dark grey instead of black, and i also put the side designs of the jerseys onto the sides of the court

Another purple and black court here. i did my own twist to the kings new court they just made. tried keeping the branding minimal here. more emphasis on lions

might just tie up the earned edition series here. but yea here's the raptors one. tried my best to resemble the color blocking on the jerseys onto the court. and added the alternate logos with a little splash of red

another earned edition based off the bucks here. obvious emphasis on the antlers. a lot of copying and pasting was done to make the outside pattern comprised of many Ms from the logo to make a forest-y pattern

Earned editions are rolling out so guess i'll slowly make some new concepts. here's one for the jazz (couldn't decide which one to use) 

the diagonal stripes are stripes are reminiscent of the side stripes that the jerseys have

Surprised i didn't do this until now. yes i know, it's another diagonal stripe asymmetrical design but it was only right when this is based off a jersey that actually looks almost identical 

Raptors city edition court. "Less chevrons more claws" is the theme i'm going for here. favorite touch here is the gold border i did that has the little scratch marks like their jersey trim

Up think eventually they’ll do this style uni but with their primary colors? Could you do a mock up of that? You do great work btw!

thank u! and sure that's actually a great idea (i could see the blazers using something similar like this since they're currently using a similar striped court this season)

Since today is mardi gras here is my pelicans mardi gras court remastered. there's not much difference but it's as high quality as it can get. i actually had to "make" the pelicans font myself since it was nowhere to be found the closest i could find was the geared font to which i made little tweaks to each and every letter to get the wordmarks. and the lines are as sharp as they can get

another magic court i was running out of ideas and remembered a while ago the Magic had galaxy jerseys 

some orange madness lol. similar to the old heat court i made i minimilized the use of black so the colors can really pop. had to make it feel as "fresh" as possible unlike what they have currently which kinda just feels more like halloween than anything

and you know me, i just had to include the skyline especially when they have disney world 

this court isn't really based on any specific jersey. but it did take inspiration from their astronaut themed jerseys they had last season. but i made a blue version inspired by blue astronaut suits. plus this shade of blue is a lot more recognizable by the rockets than their current city edition cyan blues
