Basketball Court Boundary Rules

Video Transcript

"OK, next, I would like to discuss in-bounds and out-of-bounds. What we will use is this black line here, for a point of reference. Usually, when you're dribbling too close to the line, you want to make sure that you keep the ball, where I am. I'm in-bounds, right now. Outside of the black line would be out-of-bounds. Anywhere outside of the black line would be out-of-bounds. So, when you are dribbling on the court, within the game, make sure that you keep the ball in-bounds. Even if you're on the black line, it's considered out-of-bounds, so you want to keep the ball in-bounds at all times. As well as, when you're inbounding the ball, and the ball does go out-of-bounds, if it's on you, that's a turnover, which will result in the other team getting the ball. You want to make sure that you stay aware of your boundaries, so that you can keep the ball in-bounds at all times."
