Basketball players move a ball on a court by dribbling, passing, and shooting. Points are scored when a player shoots the ball through the hoop. A basket counts as two or three points, and free throws count one point each. The team scoring the most points wins the game. A basketball game has four quarters. The length of each quarter has 10 minutes. Play starts with a “jump ball” at center court. At halftime, teams switch sides. Each team has a number of time-outs per half. If a game ends in a tie, teams usually play overtime periods until one team wins.
DRIBBLING: bouncing the ball with one hand PASSING: moving the ball to another player. SHOOTING: throwing to make a basket. PIVOTING: stepping once or more timeswith the same foot while keeping the other foot at its initial position. REBOUNDING: the recovering of a failed shoot.
1 POINT: a shoot made from behind the free throw line while the clock is stopped. 2 POINTS: a shot made from anywhere inside the 3 points line. 3 POINTS: a throw made from anywhere outside the 3 points line.
