Basketball
Basketball is a popular team sport with five players on each opposing team playing on a flat rectangular court with a hoop located on each end of the court. The objective of the sport is to shoot a basketball through the defending team's hoop, while defending one's own hoop from the opposing team. There are three ways to score in basketball, the first being inside the three-point arc (2 points), the second being outside the three-point arc (3 points), and third being from the foul line (1 point). The length of a typical basketball game varies depending on the level of play, where in the NBA there are four twelve-minute quarters in a single game. The team with the most baskets scored in all four quarters is declared winner.
