In that case you really don’t know if there is a significant problem or not until the downspout is fixed. This might be simple and cheap to resolve.

just my opinion but that water looks like its seeping in from all 4 walls. A broken downspout could account for one wall or corner flooding but not water coming in from all sides.

What I see is that there is enough water to cover much of the floor, and as such the picture does not tell us where it is coming from. For example, the raised part of the floor next to the wall on the left is dry. It is still quite possible that all the water we see on the floor flowed in from one place.

You may very well be correct. We are both just guessing based on the pic which as you mentioned, isn’t much to go on.

At first I thought It was my main drain in the middle of the basement and there was water there but it’s also in the corners of the walls
