Understanding Basketball Basics by Kate Cotoner is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Basketball is a team sport played on a rectangular court with two goals at each end. The objective is to score more points than the opposing team by shooting the ball through the basket. It was invented in 1891 by James Naismith as an indoor sport that was less dangerous than football. Key aspects of basketball include dribbling, passing, shooting, and rebounding to advance the ball toward the goal. Common terminology includes assists, blocks, charges, fouls and turnovers.
