Go together to a local game or watch one at home as a date night. Or go to a favorite restaurant and watch the game there.
Make sure to balance other activities that everyone else likes to do. Don’t let basketball be the only activity in your house.
Use basketball as an analogy to talk about things in your marriage, like the “wins” you share together when you work as a team.
Talk about the importance of investing a similar amount of time in keeping your marriage healthy. Is it worth it to you to be part of a winning team in the game of life?

Happy watching!
