The game is played in four quarters, and teams can score by making field goals from various distances or free throws when fouled.
Basketball emphasizes skills such as dribbling, shooting, passing, and defense. The sport is governed by specific rules, including violations such as traveling and fouls. It is popular worldwide, with professional leagues, college competitions, and international tournaments. The objective is to outscore the opposing team, utilizing teamwork and strategy while also showcasing individual skills.
