Ever been at an airport and thought — I'd rather be playing hoops?

A MARTÍNEZ, HOST:

Good morning, I'm A Martínez. Ever been in an airport and thought, I'd rather be playing hoops? Well, the Indianapolis International Airport has a full-length regulation basketball court. The city is hosting the 2024 NBA All-Star game next month, and it's a friendly reminder from the NBA team the Pacers that, quote, "in 49 states, it's just basketball, but this is Indiana." Anyways, even though it's a basketball court in an airport, don't take flight on a slam dunk that you know you can't land. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
