LaMelo Ball says he's such a good rebounder because he played a lot of twenty-one | The Jump

Twenty-one (21) is a simple basketball variation usually played by at least three players on a half-court. The game is individually-based, and the object is to score exactly 21 points before your challengers. By individual, it means you do not have any teammates within the game, and you are responsible solely for your points and overall performance, while other players are attempting the same.

Basic rules:
• A 3-point shot earns you 3 points.
• Regular shots made inside the 3-point line are worth 2 points.
• Free-throws made from the free-throw line is worth a point.
