About NBA

The National Basketball Association (NBA) formed in 1946 is made up of 30 franchises who play across two conferences, the East and West. ​By clinching the 2020 NBA title, the Los Angeles Lakers have 17 championships to their name and are tied for the most all-time with the Boston Celtics.

An NBA can have 5 players on court, these include a shooting guard, point guard, centre, small forward and power forward, and the game is played over 4 x 12-minute periods.

Typically, NBA games are high scoring affairs; the highest ever score between Denver Nuggets and Detroit Pistons who shared 370 points! Detroit winning 186-184.​ There are three ways to score in the NBA; a 3 pointer from outside the 3 point line, 2 points from inside the 3 point line and 1 point for free throw received for a technical foul.​ The most dramatic way to score in the NBA is the Slam Dunk which originated in the 1960’s. A dunk is performed when a player jumps in the air, controls the ball above the rim and scores by slamming the ball through the basket.
