Does violations or fouls cause you to lose possession arrow?

Answer 1

Not necessarily, but all DO violations result in a "turn over" which means your team gives up possession. In a foul may result in a free throw, if that person was fouled while he was shooting, if he wasn't the player that fouled him/her will just get a foul and the team will resume, the game. However if your team all together has reached four team fouls, your team is "in the penalty" or in a "bonus affect situation", and any time of foul whether a shooting foul or not, it will result two free throws (three if they were on the 3-point line.)
