Tall Player Balancing a Spinning Number 1 Ball

A tall, smiling basketball player stands with one arm raised, balancing a spinning basketball on the tip of his index finger. Small motion lines near the ball show that it is twirling. He wears a sleeveless jersey with a big number 1 on the front and a pair of loose shorts, and his other arm hangs down at his side. His hair is cut very short and his grin is wide. The ball has curved seam lines that are fun to fill in. Try coloring the jersey and shorts in a favorite team's colors, then pick an orange or brown shade for the ball and leave a little white space for shine. This free printable also works well for a gym class activity or for kids who like to practice ball tricks. Ask them to talk about their own lucky number while they color the 1.
