Is Stonehenge an ancient temple?

To my knowledge, Stonehenge is still a mystery. No one knows if it was a temple or what its purpose was. It is however more likely to be a temple than some kind of complex 'observatory'. Around 1720 Dr Willaim Stukeley noticed the midsummer sunrise was visible in the direction of the Heelstone, ever since that time more and more complex 'astronomical alignments' have been conjectured. The simple fact is that the stones at Stonehenge were laid out to a precise plan wherein they relate to one another, not to distant objects or the sky. Sure there is the solstice alignment, but even that is confused- because the monument faces the midwinter sunset not midsummer sunrise. All the arguments point to it being an elegantly designed and premeditated mirrored geometric construction (with its axis fixed on the solstices) are presented in recent research entitled 'Solving Stonehenge'. The author, an experienced archaeologist, is in no doubt that it was a Temple.

Was basketball played by the Aztecs Mayans?

They didn't play basketball, they played what today is called the Mesoamerican ball game which is similar. Mayans called it Pok-o-Tok and Aztecs would call it Tlachtli, but the game was exactly the same. There would be two groups of men, each team would have three turns to touch the ball and try to score a "basket" before passing it to the other team. It was only played with their shoulders, hips and thighs.

They would play on a square court with 2 vertical walls where they would have the rings (what today is the basket). The loosing team would be sacrificed (the blood would be given to the gods).
