delete "non-contact"
Anyone who has played the game knows that contact is an integral part of it. Saying "non-contact" is... silly. 87.88.109.203 (talk) 10:07, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

Article Evauluation
I recently evaluated this article as part of a class assignment. I found that this article can be improved in the following ways: One way it can be improved is updating the tallest player in the NBA currently. As of right now, Sim Bhullar is no longer in the NBA. Another thing that can be improved is the history of the WNBA. I feel that there is way more information on the male side of basketball then the female side. --Evan1731 (talk) 17:12, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

A point guard is as a coach on the floor, who can handle and distribute the ball to teammates.

- Not done: @Shahrozian:, we generally ask for reliable sources to support claims made such as this, saying "it is true" is not generally accepted.

5 players per "team"?
Initiating a discussion-- The article states that basketball consists of "team members" of "5 per side", and other similar references to team size in multiple locations. Does this need clarification? I realize that the game is played with 5 players per team on the court at a time--but the teams themselves almost never consist of only five players. They're typically 10 to 12 players, allowing for substitutes, etc. Should this distinction be clarified in the article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 136.237.9.10 (talk) 23:32, 10 July 2018 (UTC)
"Indoor" sport??
This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request. |
At least one point of the metadata of this article states that basketball is an "indoor" sport. Clearly, the game is played outdoors as well, at many levels. Please remove "indoor" reference.
Clarification of request: When I search on the Wikipedia app on my iPhone, and type "basketball", the first item in the search summary says, "Basketball--Team sport played on an indoor court with baskets on either end". This is the "indoor" for which I am requesting removal.

Dribbling
The article currently makes a vague and uncited claim (not mentioned in the article on dribbling or the one on the ball itself) that "Dribbling only became a major part of the game around the 1950s[citation needed], as manufacturing improved the ball shape." Surviving film from the 1950s and earlier decades actually does show players dribbling the ball, oftentimes as skillfully as today's players. Timothy Horrigan (talk) 22:39, 12 January 2019 (UTC)

an over and back in basketball is when the ball has been brought over half it cannot be taken back over that half, the ball can only be played on that side of the court otherwise you will be called on "over and back" and the other team will get possession of the ball. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.204.254.30 (talk) 03:08, 20 December 2012 (UTC)

Missed shots

Suggestion for lead
It seems to me that the lead spends too much time explaining the rules of basketball - this can be covered in depth in the article body. There isn't enough coverage of other things, such as history and cultural impact. I would adjust these things myself but I don't know anything about basketball. Popcornfud (talk) 11:13, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
Five main rules of Basketball
1) The ball may be thrown in any direction with one or both hands. 2) The ball may be batted in any direction with one or both hands. 3) A player cannot run with the ball. The player must throw it from the spot on which he catches it, an allowance to be made for a man who catches the ball when running at a good speed if he tries to stop. 4) The ball must be held in or between the hands; the arms or body must not be used for holding it. 5) No shouldering, holding, striking, pushing, or tripping in any way of an opponent. The first infringement of this rule by any person shall count as a foul; the second shall disqualify him until the next basket is made or if there was evident intent to injure the person, for the whole of the game. No substitution shall be allowed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Avinash425 (talk • contribs) 14:27, 27 October 2020 (UTC)

In my opinion I think that basketball is one of my favorite sports. The first reason are that basketball has a lot of benefits to the sport itself. The second reason is that basketball is for everyone and anyone can have benefits to it.
First off all basketball has a lot of benefits to it.

Edit request: violations
In the first sentence on the third paragraph from the top, the article says: "Violations are called 'fouls'".

U.S. Centric
Naturally, this article will have a great deal to do with the U.S. as the birthplace and continuing professional heartland of basketball. However, the entire article is written from a perspective dealing almost wholly with basketball in relation to the USA, from the assumed perspective of a U.S. reader. A particularly clear example is the various headings for different levels of basketball, all focusing entirely on the sport in the U.S. The international basketball section, which should rightly solely focus on the sport played at the international level, mostly does so, but then wholly inappropriately has a few short paragraphs about basketball played outside the U.S. generally.
In fact, the whole headline system of this article is largely inappropriate outside of a U.S. context, as categorization of basketball playing does not universally reflect the U.S. model. A lot of it is good, but perhaps a new article should reflect the development of basketball in the U.S., whereas this article should be shorter, focused, and universally relevant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.27.195.37 (talk) 12:07, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
Correction needed: High school timing rules
High school games are split into four quarters. Each quarter is 10 to 12 minutes long. This is not true. Minnesota has used 18-minute halves for many years. Wisconsin just completed their first full year of 18-minute halves. And a quick internet search indicates that many other states are considering or experimenting with halves. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 136.237.61.10 (talk) 21:28, 1 April 2016 (UTC)
New main image
I think the page needs a new front/main image in the infobox, rather than having the picture of the creator of basketball.

Something more modern. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.30.110.252 (talk) 20:15, 7 June 2018 (UTC)
Getting own/opposing basket backwards
Early on it says: "with the primary objective of shooting a basketball through the defender's hoop, while preventing the opposing team from shooting through their own hoop". I am pretty sure this is backwards - basketball isn't soccer or football, and you are *supposed* to score in your own basket. From the NCAA rulebook: "When a player scores a field goal in the opponent’s basket, it shall count as two points for the opponent regardless of the location on the playing court from where it was released." I will look for some further sources but I'm pretty sure this is correct regardless of league or level. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Statalyzer (talk • contribs) 04:02, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

Basketball
Basketball is a team sport in which two teams, most commonly of five players each, opposing one another on a rectangular court, compete with the primary objective of shooting a basketball (approximately 9.4 inches (24 cm) in diameter) through the defender's hoop (a basket 18 inches (46 cm) in diameter mounted 10 feet (3.048 m) high to a backboard at each end of the court), while preventing the opposing team from shooting through their own hoop. A field goal is worth two points, unless made from behind the three-point line, when it is worth three. After a foul, timed play stops and the player fouled or designated to shoot a technical foul is given one, two or three one-point free throws. The team with the most points at the end of the game wins, but if regulation play expires with the score tied, an additional period of play (overtime) is mandated. 103.167.233.75 (talk) 14:09, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

Where is the Pointing System?
Of course I know it, but if I´m a newbie I wouldn´t know, so there should be a description
1-Point = Free-Throw 2-Points = normal Middledistance-Throw 3-Points = wide-distance-thropw behind the 3-point-line 2+1-points = normal Middledistance-Throw + a Free-Throw 3+1 points = wide-distance-thropw behind the 3-point-line + a Free-Throw Lasse Miranda (talk) 12:52, 18 June 2023 (UTC)

I would like to update the new foul rules per the NFHS.
Under the new rule, team fouls will be tracked and reset by quarter. There will be no one-and-one but instead the opposing team will shoot two free throws after the fifth foul of each quarter.[1] Sar7w6 (talk) 00:00, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
