A player only has up to five fouls from high school up to college, and the NBA allows six fouls before fouling out. A team; however, may foul as many times as they want, granted they have the players to do so.
In my experience,only 5 fouls are allowed per Basketball game. If you have 3, your coach may call a time-out and tell you to be careful. If you have 4 fouls, it is most likely that you will be taken out of the game unless there is not a large amount of time left in the game.
5 fouls are allowed in anything up to and including college. In the NBA, players are allowed 6. Five is the limit in international play.

Collegiate and High School is 5 fouls........NBA is 6 fouls
That depends on what league you are referring too. In high school, NCAA basketball, Euro League (I believe), and FIBA Basketball, if a player receives 5 fouls, he's fouled out of the game. However in the NBA/NBA Development League (D-League), if a player receives 6 they get fouled out.
Stupid question
Three full timeouts and two 30-second timeouts are allowed in high-school basketball.
They made 1961 fouls
Basketball has gone past the times of Magic Johnson and Larry Bird. These type of aggressive rivalries were the stuff that people wanted. Now you have way too many fouls. Basketball shouldn't be like hockey, though. Basketball is NOW a little bit of a contact sport.
In baseball there is a 4 foul streak before you are out and if you catch a foul, you are out.
