If anyone could please help me win $300 so I can buy my husband a birthday gift, it would be VERY much appreciated! All I have to do is guess which basketball term goes with the cartoon, and for every correct guess, I get entered into a drawing to win the money. Easy, but I'm terrible with basketball! It's my friend's contest so I have a lot of faith, but unfortunately, not a lot of basketball knowledge. The link is here:

The guy with a suitcase is likely a "journeyman"

the baby is "baby hookshot"

Don't get the others but others might be able to help.

The one with the elephant looks like the ball-carrier which committed the "offensive foul of charging" against the defender.

Journeyman may apply to other sports, since the theme is basketball I think its "traveling"

The third one, my guess is "playing above the rim"

Yeah, good point. I agree your answer is better.

I get now that the theme is ON COURT related terms.

Well...I didn't win the contest. I guess that's to be expected (seeing as I know hardly anything about basketball). That being said, after watching some of the games with my husband, I decided to buy him the book! Maybe I can study it a little bit and one-up him during the name game? Lol. If you want to take a look, it's on Amazon here: http://amzn.to/1CuawUP
