The ball is gone, so I did it with the skull.

I went to the basket, it told me to press a button to "dunk" it, I did & gave me the achievement.

After going through a tunnel from your spaceship to station "Tacoma", you'll find yourself in the main hub area from which you can travel to all other areas/modules in the game.
Right in front of you there is gonna be Engineering entrance, then Cryogenics capsules and then the entrance to a Biomedical module. Basketball "arena" gonna be exactly where the Biomedical entrance is.
Opposite from Biomedical entrance you'll see "3-point line" switch. Turn it on and you'll see holographic spheres around basketball hoops.
Just take a ball (gonna float around in this area) and throw it while being outside of the holographic sphere. It's easier to do while being above a hoop.

It might be buggy+. I threw the ball close to the hoop from far away, picked the ball back up, 'dunked' it and the achievement unlocked.

Is the basketball one of those items that can not spawn? Because it looks like it would stand out from the background and I don't see it anywhere in my hub area. Luckily, it's not far from the beginning should I need to start over.

Throw it. Don't dunk it.

This can be done at any point during the game in the hub area. Activate the three-point line in the biomedical section of the hub and score a shot from outside of the three-point circle. If you have completed the game prior to achieving this, you can reload your game and backtrack from the end to any part of the Tacoma.
See the video HERE for more information.
Easily done at the beginning of the game. As soon as you enter the gravity-free hub, find the basketball, approach the basket, and interact with it to "dunk" the ball. If this doesn't work the first time, float a short way away and try again.

Above the hoops there is a panel that includes a visualization of the three-point zone. It's easiest to throw while above the hoop outside the area shown. Can be knocked out by throwing in a skull for another trophy.
