No, a player cannot be called for offsides in basketball. The term "offsides" is not used in basketball rules. If a player steps out of bounds while in possession of the ball, it is called a "out of bounds" violation, and the ball is turned over to the opposing team.
As with all sports, it is important to understand the boundaries on a basketball court. A player only needs one foot to establish in bounds in basketball.
yes, but the ball will be out of bounds
Both feet have to be established in bounds before the player can touch the ball again without being called out of bounds
yeah, ur thinking of football when if a receiver goes out of bounds, he can't touch the ball first. In basketball, you can jump into the crowd if u want and back and then still get the ball.
in order for a ball in basketball to be considered to be out of bounds the ball MUST touch/hit the ground out bounds ... if the ball does not touch/hit out of bounds the ball is still live a play can go out of bounds to throw/pass the ball back in bounds so long as the player that is going for the ball bounds feet are in the air when he makes contact with the ball ...
Yes...they must have 2 feet in bounds first
5 seconds
A player can actually roll the basketball too another player. You often see this on an out-of-bounds play when one team doesn't want the clock to start right away.
No. Once the ball touches a player that is out of bounds, the ball is considered out of bounds.
if the ball goes out of bounds then the team that threw it out of bounds doesnt get it
