My Entry in The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #948

In The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #948 from the issue of June 16, 2025, a judge hands a basketball from the bench to a man in his courtroom. There is a basket set up behind the judge. A witness is in the witness box. An angry lawyer stands on the left. The judge is speaking. My entry appears below. The drawing is by Mort Gerberg.

"Now dazzle the ABA and the NBA."



These captions were flagrant fouls:

"Sustained. Take a free throw."
"Counselor, give us your spin."
