Where are the Fortnite basketball courts for the score a basket on different hoops challenge?

This week's Fortnite Battle Pass Challenges asks you to score a basket on different hoops. You only need to score 5 hoops from a possible 9 courts so you have plenty of options when the bus flies over. 

However, there's two parts to this: unlocking the basketball emote, and then finding the actual Basketball hoops on the Fortnite map. Let's start with the first bit because otherwise the laws of logic collapse and chaos reigns.

How to shoot a basketball in Fortnite

The Fortnite basketball is actually a new kind of toy emote and it's one of the first you unlock when you level your battle pass up to tier 11. If you haven't reached that yet you'll either have to play to gain the battle stars you need, or pay to unlock the tiers - either by buying a battle pass, or by purchasing the individual tiers. 

Once you have the basketball you can go into your emotes in the locker menu, equip it and use it like a normal emote. Scoring a hoop will take a little trial and error - you throw the ball where you're looking so it'll go higher and further if you look up. The easiest way to do it is to zero in as close as you can to scoring, then physically move backwards and forwards until you hit that sweet spot.

Where are the Fortnite basketball courts? 

There are 9 courts in total with a high concentration on the west side of the map. Your best bet is always to take the ones nearer the end of the bus run so there's less people around. Don't worry about playing a full game, just land, score the shot and then it doesn't matter if you die. Note: while some courts have two hoops, you can only score once at each court. 

It's best to make sure you've got the basketball emote equipped before you get on the bus, but you can scroll through your emote / sprays in your locker, it just might take a bit longer. We all know time can be of the essence after all.

Now, let's go through the Fortnite basketball locations and find those hoops on the map.
