hilarious thought. stranger things canon is sloppy enough that they never actually confirm if billy was or wasn't officially on the basketball team. they don't ever show him (or steve for that matter) in a jersey or at a game. yes, they obviously face off, but that could plausibly be gym class and not team practice, SO. just for kicks what if billy ISN'T on the basketball team. he just Does That to steve three times a week and then goes off to fucking calculus with a song in his heart
