What is "basketball"?

Basketball is a team sport played between two teams of five players each, on a rectangular court with a hoop at each end. The objective is to score points by shooting a ball through the opponent's hoop, which is typically suspended 10 feet above the ground. Players can move the ball by dribbling or passing it to teammates, and they must work together to defend their hoop while trying to score. The game is played in four quarters, and the team with the most points at the end wins.
