So, I was messing around online the other day, trying to kill some time, and I stumbled upon this crossword puzzle. You know, the kind where you gotta fill in the words based on the clues they give you? Anyway, one of the clues was “NBA logo 3 paths,” and I was like, “What the heck does that even mean?” I’m not exactly a huge sports guy, so I figured it had something to do with basketball, but that’s about all I knew.
I started googling around, trying to find the answer. I typed in “NBA logo 3 paths” and a bunch of stuff popped up. Most of it was just links to different crossword solver websites, all saying the same thing. It seemed like everyone agreed that the answer was “ARCS”. Okay, I thought, that’s a start. But I still didn’t really get why.
I read through a few of the search results. Some said things like, “This clue was last seen in the LA Times crossword on September 16, 2024.” Others mentioned things like “bows,” “pinball paths,” and “moves like a…” which just confused me more. I mean, what do bows and pinball have to do with the NBA logo?
Then it hit me. The NBA logo is that silhouette of a guy dribbling a basketball, right? And when you shoot a basketball, it makes an arc in the air. So, “3 paths” probably refers to the path of the ball when someone’s shooting a three-pointer! It all started to make sense.
So I went back to the crossword puzzle and filled in “ARCS” for the clue. And guess what? It was right! I felt pretty darn smart, I gotta say. It was like solving a little mystery. I then proceeded to finish the rest of it and I am happy with it.
It’s funny how something as simple as a crossword clue can lead you down a rabbit hole of information. Now, not only do I know the answer to that specific clue, but I also have a slightly better understanding of what the NBA logo represents. Not bad for a few minutes of messing around online, huh? All in all, this was a fun thing to do and helped me learn some new things.
- I searched for “NBA logo 3 paths” online.
- I found that the answer was likely “ARCS”.
- I figured out that “3 paths” referred to the arc of a three-point shot.

Maybe next time I see a basketball game on TV, I’ll actually pay attention to those three-pointers. Or maybe I’ll just stick to solving crossword puzzles. Either way, it was a good little adventure for the day. This whole experience taught me a valuable lesson about how much fun it is to learn stuff.
