Points are scored by shooting the ball into the opponent’s hoop from various distances, with different point values assigned to shots made from inside or outside the three-point arc.
Key elements of the game include dribbling, passing, shooting, and defensive strategies. Basketball can be played indoors or outdoors and is popular in schools, colleges, and professional leagues worldwide. The sport emphasizes teamwork, skill development, and physical fitness.
