Why do they call the net in basketball a basket?
When basketball was first made it was used for a gym game and they put baskets on top of poles, that is where the name came from.
What is the curved line on the floor under the basketball net used for?
it is a restricted area that defenders are not allowed to stand in to take a charge (or offensive foul). They are permitted to stand in the area, but if an offensive player charges into them or knocks them over it will be their fault (because they are standing under the basket, and the offensive player has the right to land on the floor after a layup/dunk/shot).
How do you lower or raise a basketball net?
There are usually two ways to lower a basketball net. Either there will be a lever on the back, and you would scroll that around to raise or lower, or there is a lever, and you pull it down to raise the net and push it up to lower the net.
What was the first basketball net made out of?

Where can you buy a basketball net?
