Backyard Basketball was the first game in the Backyard Basketball series of games aimed at recreating the experience of playing basketball as children. The Windows and Macintosh releases did not have a license from the NBA, but featured Kevin Garnett and Lisa Leslie. Subsequent versions of the game did feature an NBA license and NBA players portrayed as children. The Windows and Macintosh versions used the SCUMM scripting language. The other versions used a custom 3D engine.
