Punk Shot is a belt-scrolling street basketball game developed and released by Konami (Company) for arcadeson November 1990.

Similar to the 1989 game Arch Rivals (Game), Punk Shot is a two-on-two adaptation of the sport of basketball, with faster pacing and lack of the sport's numerous fouls and violations (with combat being the norm, including punches, pushes, and suplexes). The game is known for its option for four-player multiplayer, with each player taking control of one of four punks: Stallion (blue, P1) and Basher (yellow, P2) for Team Ramblers and Hair (green, P3) and Spike (red, P4) for Team Slammers.

Although it has not received any home ports at the time, nor was it included in any of Konami's arcade game compilations, the game did receive a digital home re-release 25 years later on May 7, 2025, as part of HAMSTER's Arcade Archives (Franchise) series for the PlayStation 4 (Platform) and Nintendo Switch (Platform).
