Abstract
ABSTRACT Drawing from Anzaldúa’s (1999) ideas on borderlands, this conceptual article addresses the potential of basketball as a space for developing critical subjectivities within minoritized communities. Further, working through relevant scholarship at the intersections of race, play, education, and sports, connections are made as to how basketball is linked to place/non-place and narrative. Finally, the concept of Borderlands Play (BP) is introduced. BP is made up of agency, imagination, improvisation, and refusal.
