**My name is Matthew S. and I researched the sport of basketball for my MLA report project. I went over how the sport was made, the types of leagues, and how the sport has changed over the time it was made until now. The goal of basketball is to score more points than the other team in the time allowed for each quarter or half. You can score points by three pointers, or free throws or just regular shots form the field.** **There are also many fouls that can be called on you. There are many different types of leagues for the sport of basketball like the NBA, International, College and High School Basketball. Some ways the sport of basketball has changed is the three point line moved back and made for basketball. The shot clock forcing the team to shoot the ball every 24 seconds in the nba and 35 seconds in college. This is my wiki page on the sport of basketball. I think it is a great sport to watch and play.**
