Basketball Action in the Hoop
This scene captures a basketball as it passes through the rim and stretches the hanging net during a successful shot. The motion of the ball going through the net marks the defining scoring play in basketball competition.
Fascinating Facts About Scoring in Basketball
A ball passing through the hoop can be worth one, two, or three points depending on where the shooter stood on the court. Free throws count for one point, regular shots inside the arc count for two, and shots from beyond the three-point line award three points. The three-point line was first adopted by professional basketball leagues in 1979.
