Big fun and big product

Was challenging at first to put together. It took 3 family members to assemble. Some parts needed wiggling to lock into place. Took about 30 minutes to assemble. After assembly the family did enjoy the game over. Everything functioned properly and family had a great time playing. Also it is pretty large so you do need a large space for it. Overall great product.

Lots of Fun if You Have Room

The ESPN Pro Competition LED 2‑Player Arcade has been an absolute standout addition to our home. The packaging was sturdy and well organized, with every part clearly included. Assembly was straightforward, and the small pump for inflating the basketballs was a thoughtful touch. Once put together, the unit impressed us with its solid build quality—sturdy enough to feel like a real arcade-style basketball game rather than a lightweight toy. After setup, we were delighted by the bright LED lighting and fun digital displays, which can run on batteries or the included power brick. The arcade offers several game modes for both single and two‑player play. Gameplay is smooth, responsive, and genuinely fun. The controls are intuitive, and the scoring system is easy for both kids and adults to follow. What really elevates the experience is the competitive energy it brings to family and friends. The entire setup feels durable enough to handle enthusiastic players, and the lighting adds a modern, exciting touch without being overwhelming. We’ve thoroughly enjoyed having this game in our home and highly recommend it to anyone looking to add a lively, crowd‑pleasing activity to their space.

Fun For Everyone!

This is so easy to put together. It took less than 20 minutes from box to fun! The frame feels sturdy and the LED Score board is great. I was worried about the space for the game, but it folds up and does not take up too much space. All ages in our home have a fun time playing

Basketball fun

The basketball game was shipped to my house and had minor damage upon arrival. The quality is top notch so the metal bent pieces were easy to fix and the strength of the parts were not compromised. It took less than 30 minutes to put together. It is full size and so much fun! You can play two player and there are six different games! It is a great value and superior quality!

Excellent Value Arcade Game for Family Fun

The Sam’s Exclusive ESPN Pro Competition LED 2 Player Arcade Basketball is a surprisingly solid addition to a game room, basement, or bonus space. Setup was straightforward and truly tool free, which is appreciated given the size of the unit. One person can assemble it, though having a second set of hands speeds things up. Once assembled, it feels stable and well balanced on a flat surface. The frame is lightweight but not flimsy, and the side netting does a good job of keeping balls contained during fast paced play. The dual hoop layout makes head to head games competitive and engaging, especially for kids, teens, and adults alike. The LED backboard and electronic scoring work well and add to the arcade feel without being over the top. Multiple game modes keep it from feeling repetitive, and the sound effects are fun without being obnoxious. The included basketballs are the right size and weight for this style of game, and it is convenient that an air pump is included. This unit shines as a family or party game rather than a serious training tool. Shooters looking for regulation realism should temper expectations, but for casual play it delivers exactly what it promises. The foldable design is a big plus, making it easy to store when not in use, which is important given its footprint. Overall, this is an excellent value for the price, especially as a Sam’s Club exclusive. It offers strong entertainment return, easy setup, and durable performance for regular home use. A great choice for families, competitive siblings, or anyone looking to bring an arcade style experience into their home.

Arcade fun for kids and adults!

This was an excellent gift for kids for the holidays! Love the multi-player mode and that it can be played with others in a competitive format! This is a quality arcade basketball game that kids and adults will enjoy playing. We love having the feel of an arcade game in our own home. This arcade game is worth the price and is a lot of fun!

Great set-up, great quality, keeps their interest!

Purchased this for our 9 year old granddaughter. She loves it! It immediately was set up in a corner of the basement, and she had all of us taking turns competing against her. She is competitive, and she is working toward increasing her shots. So helpful for her as she began basketball last fall!

SO COOL!!

Super cool! Super fun! I love that it folds up! The quality seems very good for the price point! It didn’t weigh too much for me so I got to bring it inside myself and set it up. Love that no tools are needed to set it up! Can’t wait for the summer to set it up on our deck outside to play while hosting a BBQ with the neighbors since our house is a little small and cramped and our basement currently flooded after a bad storm otherwise we were planning on setting it up down there. Really fun! Great snag for a game room! My daughter loves playing with the basketballs! lol

Challenging, but Not Overly Challenging

This arcade style basketball game is ideal for kids and adults. It is large enough to challenge the shooter, but not overly challenging for young children. The game is large and does require a lot of space so check the dimensions before buying to make certain it will fit. I would definitively recommend purchasing.

Totally Worth Sale Price

I picked this basketball set up during a Christmas sale, and for that price, it was a great buy. However, there are a couple of issues to be aware of. First, the Velcro used to hold it together seems weak. I can't imagine it lasting more than a few months of heavy use before wearing out. Second, the catch net design leaves a lot to be desired. It feels inconsistent and simply isn't long enough. The rear straps didn't hold well initially, so I actually had to use a riveter to secure them myself. I am fine with these flaws considering the deal I got, but if I had paid full price, I honestly would have returned it
