Picture this: After watching a March Madness quarterfinal upset — that you accurately predicted in your bracket — you're pumped up and want to shoot some hoops yourself. Why not get your friends together for a pick-up basketball game like you used to? You send a message to the group chat with a proposal: Those with losing brackets take on those with winning brackets in a redemption game.

"Game on," a friend replies. "But where are we going to find a court?"

"My house," you reply, "and I'll supply the Advil, too."

The fun could all be yours in a luxurious house with your own basketball court. Whether indoor or outdoor, you can get in some training or take on some friendly competition.

I sourced several homes for sale from top real estate companies around the country, looking for houses with basketball courts to live out your dream.
