Fortnite Challenges: Where Basketball Hoops Are Located (Week 2, Season 5)
<p>Season 5 of <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/fortnite/">Fortnite: Battle Royale</a> rolls on, and the latest batch of challenges is now available to complete for Battle Pass owners on PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC, and iOS. As usual, Week 2's challenges consist of seven different objectives, which run the gamut from eliminating a certain number of players to searching a specific area of the island. One of the potentially trickier tasks is to <strong>score a basket on five different hoops</strong>; here's where to find the basketball courts with those baskets and how to complete the challenge.</p><p>To complete this challenge, you will first need to have unlocked the basketball--one of the new toy items introduced in Season 5. The basketball is earned upon reaching tier 11 of the <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/fortnite-battle-pass-season-5-free-v-bucks-skins-p/1100-6460351/">Season 5 Battle Pass</a>. Fortunately, this can be accomplished fairly quickly, so if you own the Battle Pass and have been playing regularly, there's a good chance you already have the basketball. Once unlocked, you use the toy in the same way you would use an emote by assigning it to an emote slot before a match and pressing the corresponding key or button.</p><p>Provided you know where to look, completing this challenge is simply a matter of finding a basketball hoop, then using the basketball toy to sink a shot. There are at least nine hoops scattered across the island, and the challenge doesn't need to be completed within a single match, so the easiest way to reach your goal would be to land near one of the courts at the start of a game and sink a quick shot before having to deal with other players. You can see the location of each hoop below.</p><figure data-align="center" data-size="large" data-img-src="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1578/15787979/3415492-fortnite_basketball_map.jpg" data-ref-id="1300-3415492" data-ratio="1" data-width="1024" data-embed-type="image" style="width: 1024px"><a href="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1578/15787979/3415492-fortnite_basketball_map.jpg"><img alt="No Caption Provided" src="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1578/15787979/3415492-fortnite_basketball_map.jpg" srcset="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1578/15787979/3415492-fortnite_basketball_map.jpg 1024w, https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scal...ll_map.jpg 960w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" data-width="1024"></a></figure><figure data-embed-type="gallery" data-img-src="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1578/15787979/3415525-fortnite+screenshot+2018.07.19+-+10.31.22.08.png,https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scale_super/1578/15787979/3415522-fortnite+screenshot+2018.07.19+-+10.28.20.49.jpg" data-ref-id="1300-3415525,1300-3415522" data-resize-urls="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/square_avatar/1578/15787979/3415525-fortnite+screenshot+2018.07.19+-+10.31.22.08.jpg,https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/square_avatar/1578/15787979/3415522-fortnite+screenshot+2018.07.19+-+10.28.20.49.jpg"><a href="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1578/15787979/3415525-fortnite+screenshot+2018.07.19+-+10.31.22.08.png"><img src="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/square_avatar/1578/15787979/3415525-fortnite+screenshot+2018.07.19+-+10.31.22.08.jpg" alt="Gallery image 1" data-full-srcset="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1578/15787979/3415525-fortnite+screenshot+2018.07.19+-+10.31.22.08.png 3840w, https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scal....22.08.jpg 1280w, https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scal....22.08.jpg 480w"></a><a href="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scale_super/1578/15787979/3415522-fortnite+screenshot+2018.07.19+-+10.28.20.49.jpg"><img src="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/square_avatar/1578/15787979/3415522-fortnite+screenshot+2018.07.19+-+10.28.20.49.jpg" alt="Gallery image 2" data-full-srcset="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1578/15787979/3415522-fortnite+screenshot+2018.07.19+-+10.28.20.49.png 3840w, https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scal....20.49.jpg 1280w, https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scal....20.49.jpg 480w"></a></figure><ul><li>northeastern side of <strong>Greasy Grove</strong></li><li>northwestern side of<strong> Tilted Towers</strong></li><li>near the second-northernmost house in<strong> Snobby Shores</strong></li><li><strong>near the indoor soccer field </strong>in the unnamed area east of Snobby Shores</li><li>eastern side of <strong>Junk Junction</strong></li><li>near a house on top of the <strong>mountain south of Salty Springs</strong></li><li>southern side of<strong> Retail Row</strong></li><li>in the<strong> picnic area just east of Retail Row</strong></li><li>northeastern side of <strong>Paradise Palms</strong></li></ul><p>Be aware that you'll need to score a basket at five different locations to complete this challenge; only the first one you sink at a court will count toward your total, so you won't be able to take a shortcut by throwing the basketball into both hoops on the same court.
