The rules of basketball are simple. A basketball court is rectangular with baskets set up on each side. Basketball teams have five players on each side, although basketball games can be played with as few as one player on each side in a form of basketball that is called 1-on-1. Players advance the ball up the court either by dribbling the ball or by passing it to a teammate. They are not allowed to carry the ball while they move.

The object of basketball is to try to shoot the ball through the hoop in order to score points. A field goal is a shot that goes through the basket and is worth two points. A three-point field goal, or three pointer, is a shot made from behind the three-point line, an arc around the basket, and is worth three points. In certain situations, when a basketball player is fouled, they are awarded one or two free throws. Each free throw is worth one point. The basketball team that scores the most points in the game is the winner.
