I practiced a question like this before, and I think the answer was the Scrum Team, but I’m second-guessing myself now.

I feel like the Scrum Master has a role in facilitating it, but they don’t actually own it. I think it’s more about the team as a whole.

I remember something about the Developers being responsible for the Sprint Backlog, but I could be mixing it up with the Product Backlog.

I think the Sprint Backlog is owned by the Scrum Team, but I'm not entirely sure if it's just the Developers who manage it.
