We have a phrase for such kids around here: gym rats (Rattuss palestra). Whenever there is an unused hoop, they come out of the woodwork.

As an official, I will keep them off the court between the first and second period, the third and fourth period, and during timeouts, but I don't give a Rattus palestra's *** how many come out during the halftime intermission, as I said earlier, I'm taking my break, having a beer, and grabbing a smoke.
