What am I doing wrong Here?

Declare an array of Strings named sports. Initialize the sports array with three names of sports. Use the curly brace syntax

You're missing an equals sign between you're variable and the array. Also, it'll mark that wrong for using 'sport' instead of 'sports'.

Equals sign is missing..

Correct syntax: String[] sports = {"baseball", "basketball", "football"};

Don't forget the semicolon..
