The folks who allowed 3-on-3 basketball — also known as pick-up games at the local Y — into their grandiose spectacle and went along with the idea of handing out gold medals next summer for breakdancing are trying to lock down which new sports make the cut for the 2028 Los Angeles Games. Nine are under consideration, but the one that caught my eye was the flagged, non-contact version of the game that dominates the American sporting landscape but is barely a blip to the rest of the world.
