A team rebound is awarded when no individual secures the rebound of a missed shot. The statistic has little meaning -- its existence is primarily to ensure that the total number of rebounds equals the total number of missed shots, despite the fact that some shots don't have what one would normally consider a rebound. Some examples: * The offensive team gets a team rebound when one of its players misses a shot at the buzzer. * The defense gets a team rebound when a missed shot goes out of bounds without touching a player, and when the last free throw attempt in a sequence misses the rim. * Either team can get credit for a team rebound when a missed shot goes out of bounds off a member of the other team.

Why is rebound important?

Well are you talking about rebounding in basketball? Because if so...oh my gosh. Basketball season just ended for me and we played tough for rebounding. Just think about it...if you didn't rebound the ball and the opposing team didn't make the shot you can always stop them from making another one. You gotta be tough! That's one of the biggest things in basketball.

Who getscredit for a rebound on a missed free throw?

The offensive team is credited with a "team rebound" No individual player gets credit for a rebound but the offensive team is credited with a "team rebound." A team rebound is also given following a missed shot, if a personal foul is called before the rebound can be grabbed. It is also given to the defensive team if the ball goes out of bounds after a shot without anyone touching it, or to the team getting the ball if it glances off another player and out of bounds. Also the defensive team gets a team rebound if a shooter misses the rim entirely on the last free throw attempt in a sequence.
