Basketbal

Basketball is a team sport in which two teams, typically consisting of five players each, compete to score points by shooting a ball through the opponent’s hoop elevated 10 feet above the ground. The game is played on a rectangular court with a hoop at each end. Players advance the ball by dribbling or passing it to teammates, aiming to outscore the opposing team by successful shots made from various distances. Basketball is known for its fast pace, strategic play, and emphasis on teamwork and athleticism. Key positions include point guard, shooting guard, small forward, power forward, and center, each with specific roles and responsibilities on the court. The game can be played indoors or outdoors and is a popular sport worldwide, with professional leagues such as the NBA and numerous international competitions.
