Dunking the ball.
When a player shoots the ball and it goes through the net it scores 2 points unless he is shooting from behind the 3 point arc. In that case it scores 3 points. Shots from the free-throw line (charity stripe) score 1 point.
The board above the basket is called the backboard.
A Basket :) Beyond the three point Arch= 3 Points Inside the three point Arch= 2 Points Free Throws= How many you shoot, and how many you make
no because in basketball it is called a basket
Basketball gets its name, because you use the BALLto try and shoot into the BASKET. Therefore, it is called BASKETBALL.
