Hardwood Floors Paint


Ok so I'm making a table and I'm using hardwood flooring as the tabletop to get a basketball court design on it. So I don't know what type of paint to use or how to get the basketball court look. As of now I googled it and they use a high gloss polyurethane to make it shine but i'm concerned that it won't look right and i'm also not sure what type of paint to use... So right now I was going to use an acrylic paint then a semi gloss varnish then a high gloss polyurethane. Would a lacquer be better. I am also using a decal for the center court image when should I put that on? After the varnish but before the high gloss polyurethane or lacquer?
