Basketball fans frequently play the Dribble game, where the goal is to link two NBA players using no more than six different teammates in common. Dribble game allows you to play with two or more players, and is a good way to put one's understanding of the sport and the dynamics of the players to the test.
The first player to name an NBA player (current or former) must also name a player who has played with that player on the same team in order for the game to continue. In order to connect two players who have six or fewer mutual teammates, the game continues with each player naming a player who has played with the previous player.
