No you cannot, unless you don't move your feet. Otherwise it would be a travelling violation.

The above interpretation is incorrect for the NCAA. Below is from the NCAA rules casebook:

Traveling

A.R. 114. A1 attempts a try at Team A's basket after having completed the

dribble. The try does not touch the backboard, the ring or the

flange or any other player. A1 runs and catches the ball before it

strikes the playing court. Is this traveling?

RULING: No. When A1 recovered his or her own try, A1 could

either dribble, pass or try again. There is no team control by either

team when a try is in flight. However, when the shot clock expires

and a try by A1 or a teammate has not struck the ring or the flange, it

shall be a violation of the shot-clock rule.

(Rule 4-70.1, 4-15.4.c and 9-11.2)

This is called the no-charge zone. When in this arc, the referee cannot call the "three-seconds" rule on you, which is when you are in the danger zone (the box from the free throw line to the base line) for more than three seconds.

ARTICLE 7. a. A charged full team timeout requested by any player or head

coach shall not exceed one minute, 30 seconds (Exception: Rule 3-3-4-e-3).

This includes the 25-second play clock interval.

The midcourt line in basketball exactly divides the basketball court into two equal sections. In the NBA the line is47 feet from each end line.

Twenty three feet nine inches at the top of the key. As little as twenty two feet at the corners.

Out of bounds in basketball is passed the line at the end of the court. If a person with the ball stands out of bounds the other team gets the ball. Someone on Team A is on offence (they have the ball) and someone on Team A knocks the ball out of bounds, Team B gets the ball. But if Team A was on offence and Team B knocks the ball out of bounds, Team A keeps the ball.

I can jump 10 times in a game

Contrary to what everyone believes, there is no "correct" way to shoot a basketball. This goes for left handed and right handed people. Whatever way works for you is the correct way.

First, put your left foot slightly forward (ahead of your right) and make sure your feet are shoulder width apart. Then have your shooting hand (in your case your left) behind the ball [in front of your face] and your right hand on the side, almost making a T shape. Then bend your legs and follow through. USE YOUR LEGS NO JUST YOUR ARMS!!!

Basketball games are started with the opening tip, which is a jump ball. In some competitions, a jump ball is also used to settle held balls (jointly held) and penalty possessions. In others, the alternating possession rule is used.

The reff throws the ball into the middle of two players

Nine acres is 392,040 square feet.

The distance of a three-point line is measured from the centre of the basket. For any high school or middle school gymnasium, the distance is 19.75 feet.

you can never dribble out of bounds. ever.

80-100 pro or college

50 highschool

30 recreational

15 recrational outside

While one team has possession of the ball, a player is called for an infraction if he/she is in the key for 3 seconds. If there is a loose ball or a rebound, players may be in the key for as long as it takes for the ball to be rebounded or possessed.

Why would you be ejected for fouling too much?

There's no limit to how many foul balls a player can have.

A free throw is a shot that a player gets to take if he or she has just been fouled by the opposing team. A free throw is shot from the 3 pt line. It counts as 1 point. During a free throw no one can touch the ball as it is shot.

The back of the free throw line is 15 feet from the backboard and 13 feet 9 inches to the center of the goal.

15 minutes per quarter.

Hundreds of basketball players have ended a game by making every shot they had attempted from the field. All it takes is one made shot to be perfect.

In the NBA the "rounds" are called "quarters", they're all 12:00.
