Basketbal

Basketball is a team sport in which two teams, usually consisting of five players each, compete to score points by shooting a ball through the opposing team’s hoop or net, which is elevated 10 feet above the floor. The game is played on a rectangular court, with a hoop at each end. The objective is to score more points than the opposing team by making field goals or free throws. Basketball involves dribbling, passing, and shooting skills, as well as defensive strategies to prevent the opposing team from scoring. The sport is governed by a set of rules, known as the „rules of basketball,“ which dictate how the game is played, including fouls, violations, and the scoring system. Basketball is popular globally, with professional leagues such as the NBA and international competitions such as the FIBA World Cup and the Olympics.
