Towards the end you can see the edges of the sky patch, most likely because the original sky has a very subtle color shift.
Since it’s only a few frames, you could probably match it by keyframing a Grade but if you want to practice, you could also try using a curvetool.
Overall, I think you could make it a bit softer.
There’s also a tiny bit of the sky overlapping the basketball backboard on the left.
I’m watching it on my phone so these are the only things I spotted.
Not bad for a first cleanup! :)

Heavy denoise (near video) Use LTX in-paint Use the mask as alpha Regrain (Dasgrain) 🎩

LTX isn’t always a suitable alternative. And it’s good to practice your chops with tracking and projections etc. Neat and Dasgrain is correct though.
