Released in 2003, the LEGO Sports Basketball Practice Shooting set (3549) delivers focused, skill-based play in a compact and collectible format. Designed around a freestanding hoop assembly, this set recreates solo practice sessions with a printed panel that resembles a red brick wall and features an NBA-style backboard graphic. The result is a visually striking build that instantly sets the scene for street-court basketball action.
The included basketball player minifigure is equipped with LEGO’s signature spring-loaded leg element from the Basketball subtheme, allowing players to launch the orange basketball toward the hoop with realistic motion. This interactive function transforms a small build into an engaging challenge of aim, timing, and repetition, perfect for quick play sessions or imaginative training scenarios.
With just 17 pieces, Practice Shooting offers a fast and satisfying build that fits easily into larger LEGO Sports displays or collections. Its unique wall-mounted hoop design and classic early-2000s aesthetic make it a standout piece for fans who appreciate LEGO’s experimental sports era, while its portability ensures it’s always ready for instant basketball fun.
