A novel basketball stand can effectively solve the problems that the conventional basketball stand is not adjustable in height and cannot turn. The novel basketball stand comprises supporting frames, backboards and baskets, wherein the backboards are fixed to the supporting frames; the baskets are fixed to the backboard; a circular box body is arranged below the supporting frames; a turning shaft of which the top is positioned on the outer side of the box body is inserted into the center of the upper side of the box body; the two supporting frames positioned above the box body are symmetrically arranged on the turning shaft; the turning shaft sequentially comprises a rotating shaft, a rotating disc and a rotating thin shaft from top to bottom; the rotating shaft stretches out of the upper end of the box body and is fixedly connected with the supporting frames to form a structure that the supporting frames turn in the box body and can lift up and down. Up-and-down lifting and turning of the baskets are controlled by treading a pedal, so that the heights of the baskets can be conveniently adjusted; when one basket is damaged, the baskets can be driven to turn by treading the pedal, so that replacement of the basket is achieved and playing fun is not affected.
