Basketball World Records

549 basketball world records, videos, and challenges

Basketball world records are where players dribble, shoot, spin and dunk their way to glory, often with an added element of difficulty. (Try juggling three basketballs while balancing a fourth on your forehead and you'll get the idea.) These records don't all require varsity-level experience, though - for a less challenging task, try beating the record for Most Images of Charles Barkley on a Cookie or Most Three-Pointers Missed By Five People In One Minute.

Most Consecutive Half Court Basketball Shots

Chris Kuchar

Chris Kuchar made 11 consecutive half-court basketball shots at a gym in Washington, Utah. Shooting from behind the half-court line in a single unedited take, he sank shot after shot while his son rebounded and fed the ball back to him. Half-court shots are the long-range heaves usually reserved for buzzer-beaters, so stringing 11 together without a miss is a serious display of range and consistency.
