basketball hoops
Nets' circular frames
Basketball hoops are the circular metal rings with hanging nets through which players shoot the ball to score.
By extension, the term refers to the entire backboard-and-rim apparatus, or to the game itself: Let's go shoot some hoops.
Playing hoops is playing basketball.
