FreeStyle Street Basketball is a free fast-paced online basketball game where players meet on virtual courts to challenge each other. The game’s controls allows one to master every move, from simple shots to Alley-Oop Dunks, using just 7 keys (A,S,D,F,Q,W,E). Based on your position you may get some skills that require the extra keys (Q,E,and F). A,S,D,F, and W are the basic controls. Lace up your kicks to play 1-on-1, 2-on-2, or 3-on-3 street-basketball online against people from around the country. FreeStyle is all about action. No fouls. No free throws. Nothing is out of bounds. The only rules to watch for are the 20-second shot clock the clearing the ball outside the three point line before you can shoot when you take possession, and the double dribble rule.
