I don't know if it's required but I timed myself - 25 minutes:
It was a cloudy day. It was me, my cousin, and my older brother in a game of 12 (a short game of 21). It was a free-for-all match. I have little skill in basketball, my cousin has more skill, and out of us three my brother has the most skill.
First we had to break the ball. I went, and completely missed rim, it was too far off to the left. Next, my cousin shot and he hit rim but it bounced off. Finally, my brother went and it bounced off rim and made it in. The game begins!
He goes to free throw line for his free throws. My cousin and I try to tip him to keep his score low. Neither of us are good at tipping. He starts chaining basket after basket and before we know it, his score is 9 when he misses. Now my cousin and I are really worried. My brother seems to win every time we play. My brother has the ball; my cousin and I move to block him. That proves to be useless when he runs right past us. The ball hits rim, but doesn't make it.
My cousin and I race for the ball outside. My cousin beats me there and takes it back to free throw. I go to block him. My cousin runs past me but I steal the ball out of his hand and go to make a shot. I shoot off backboard and it goes in! My first point! My confidence is boosted. It starts drizzling outside. I take a breath and I aim as best as I can. I shoot and it goes in! My cousin passes me the ball. I concentrate, and shoot. I make it in again! Now my brother and cousin are surprised. My third shot, it goes in again! The score is 4:0:9. I shoot, and miss.
The ball lands into my brother's hand as he jumps to tip, but it doesn't go in! Now the ball is bouncing and rolling away; my cousin chases it and dribbles it back swiftly. He gets to the free throw point, fakes a throw and goes in further. A few meters away from the goal he shoots and he scores! He goes back for his free throw. First shot, goes in. Second goes in. But the third is tipped by my brother.
The score doesn't change. My brother prepares to free throw. It hits rim I jump up and I shoot it in! I just tipped my brother. The score is now 5:0:0. I go for my free throw, first, second, and third go in! I dribble it straight for the goal and score another. 9:0:0. I go for my free throws. I shoot, it hits rim and my brother tips me, the score is evened. He makes a few more baskets before we decide it is raining to hard and we go inside the house.

P.S. This is fiction because some truths were distorted and stuff to fit the whole 500 words thing.
