Rule Home Court and Win $20,000

Ones Basketball League is a first-of-its-kind elite competition that celebrates the most skilled one-on-one players on the planet. The pilot season traveled the country to identify talent through regional competition, culminating in the OBL Finals in Las Vegas. The 2025 season gathers 16 top players in Houston for two weekends of intense competition on T-Mac’s Home Court.

In OBL Home Court 2025, 16 players will be split into two groups across two weekends of games, with eight players competing per weekend. The winners of each weekend will receive $1,500, and the top two players from each weekend will advance to the Championship Day. The Champion will win $20,000. All play will be in accordance with the following rules:

• Games will be played half court until 9 (nine) points are scored by a Player or the expiration of a 10-minute running game clock, whichever occurs first, with made baskets inside the three-point line counting as one point and made baskets beyond the three-point line counting as two points.
• There will be a 12-second possession clock for each possession; after 12 seconds, possession changes, even if the offensive Player has attempted a shot and gets an offensive rebound.
• After a made basket or dead-ball change of possession (e.g., turnover out of bounds or offensive foul), the other Player gets possession of the ball and the League officials will reset the possession.
• For a Player’s first 4 fouls, such fouls will result in a reset of the possession (and reset of the 12- second possession clock). Beginning with a Player’s fifth foul, if a Player commits a defensive foul, the offensive Player gets a one-point free throw attempt, regardless of whether the foul is committed while the offensive Player is in the act of shooting. Any offensive foul will result in a change of possession.
• An offensive Player may not back down the defensive Player for more than three consecutive seconds, and any such violation will result in a change of possession.
• Each Player has one one-minute timeout per game and one 30 second timeout per game.
• In the event that neither Player scores nine points by the expiration of the 10-minute period, the Player with the most points will be deemed the winner of the game.
• In the event of a tie at the expiration of the 10-minute period, the Players will play an overtime round.
• The first Player to score two points during such overtime round will be deemed the winner.
