horseplay

Roughousing, sometimes mock-wrestling, usually between two boys of similar age. "Horseplay" at first glance looks like actual fighting or wrestling until the more playful "fooling around" element become visible, but horseplay sometimes can deteriorate into real fighting.

A Midwestern urban regionalism means the same but includes a "get your back" connotation: grabass. No one considers that homoerotic.
"I told you, boys, no horseplay standing in line. You're not getting into the theater if you don't stop fooling around like that."

basketball player

Sexually speaking, it's a man who "dribbles" before he "shoots." That is, when fully aroused and ready to come, he is generous with driblets of pre-ejaculatory fluid ("pre-cum"), sometimes followed by dribbled semen (the beginning of ejaculation), before the main orgasm kicks in, causing him to spurt semen (he "shoots").

There is nothing wrong with this sequence of events; in fact, it's quite normal.
.
"Algernon and I were upstairs last night fooling around and I found out the hard way that he's a basketball player."

"So what was he doing so close to your hoop, anyway?"
