No, not really, The lens does not have the ability to move in and out to areas to take a picture, it is set distance lens. So if you want to take a picture of the team dribbling the ball down the court, unless the player is right in front of you, then your out of luck if they move. Now, if you wanted to take a picture of t he entire team before or after a game as a team photo, this is an excellent lens. See the difference, no movement vs. movement of the object. It will take excellent team photos if everyone is standing still in one place.
