LNB (France) All-Star Game With Artistic Court

The court for today's French LNB (Ligue Nationale de Basket) All-Star Game featured what might be considered an abstract art design. As shown here, the court was, for the most part, conventional, with black (or dark grey) keys and out-of-bounds areas, an unremarkable center-court logo, and different shades of shellac to distinguish the areas inside and outside the three-point arc. Painted on top of this basic "canvas," however, were swirls of yellow and red that seemed randomly located on the court and multicolor dot/mosaic patterns filling in the semicircles above the two free-throw lines.

Frequent contributor Matt Rachmiel sends along two interesting court designs.

Northwestern State University (Louisiana) has joined the large-midcourt-logo club, with its shellac-shade Demon behind the blue "N" and state outline in the center circle (video clip). Just a little too busy for my tastes. Further, the out-of-bounds area is blue on one half of the court and orange on the other. The video also features the play of Hansel Enmanuel, who had his left arm amputated in his childhood. An amazing story!

The Long Island Nets of the NBA G (Development) League have a court that is unusual in at least two ways (video clip). One key is painted in blue and the other red. Also, each key has a solid white semicircle below the free-throw stripe.
