| Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | Backboard shattering |
| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | To illustrate what a shattered backboard is. |
| Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
No similar free images could be found. Backboards can't be shattered on demand, so it is essentially impossible to produce an equivalent free image. See talk for further explanation. |
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | Use of the file will be minimal because it will only be used on one article. |
| Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
The file is to be used strictly for an educational encyclopedic purpose, so it would not harm any commercial opportunities for the owner. |
