"Basketball:skills and strategy "
Basketball is a fast-paced, team sport where two teams of five players each compete to score points by shooting a ball through the opponent's hoop, a raised net situated at each end of the court. Players dribble, pass, and shoot while trying to outmaneuver their opponents both offensively and defensively. The game is played in four quarters, with each team trying to score more points than the other by making field goals or free throws. It emphasizes athleticism, strategy, and teamwork, making it one of the most popular and widely followed sports globally.
