In basketball, one who never passes the ball to other players and just tries to shoot for himself.
Bob: Mike is such a ballhog; whenever he gets the ball, he just shoots it without even trying to pass it to one of us!
Joe: I know right...

Words you can keep
someone who doesn't pass the ball

someone who chooses showing off some difficult crap rather than doing the right thing by giving the ball up

someone who hurts the team (no no not Kobe Bryant's case where he's benefitting the team)
Steve Francis is a ballhog
Stephon Marbury is a ballhog

Allen Iverson can be a ballhog, but he helps his team a lot by ballhogging

Kobe Bryant can be a ballhog as well, but he also helps his team a lot by ballhogging

Person with 2 IQ that never passes the ball, a.k.a main reason of the game loss.
-"Dickhead is such a Ballhog, he always choose to throw the ball and fail instead of passing the ball to someone who is wideopen."

A "ball hog" is a player who wants to be at the center of all the (offensive) action, and this sometimes manifests in selfish play: not passing to open teammates, taking low-percentage shots because they want to be the one who scores. The True Enigma.
i will ballhog all summer.

Ballhog is essentially looking fitted to the maximum with premium archive pieces and the swagger of a celebrity.
“Yo did you see Brady Goo was wearing some Empyre jeans with a Spraygrounds backpack? That shi is wack hes looking like a larp”
-Mr Goo Walks In-
“Boy you’ll never catch the swagmaster wearing that.. *flexes chrome belt, burberry scarf, supreme 130 backpack and evisu jeans*”
“Apologies twizzy your fit ballhog like my Levi 501s that become archive over time. #swag lets flick up on the gram with snap filters on my iphone duo thats essentially a iphone 5 but niche”
