Foul Shot/Line: The foul shot is giving to you when you are fouled while shooting the ball or about to shoot the ball. If you shoot and get fouled but it misses the net, you will receive two foul shots, but if you shoot and make the basket while still getting fouled, your two points will be counted and you will get one foul shot. (Just remember each shot is worth one point.) If you are fouled during a three pointer you will be rewarded three foul shots , you will only get one if you make it. The foul line is 15 feet away from the hoop.
Three Pointer: The three point line is the farthest shot you can take in the game of basketball. It is exactly 19.9 feet away from the basket. The three point line is in a semi circle formation that connects to the base line on each side of the basket (still 19.9 feet away), and intersects with the semi circle that is connected to the foul line. In order for your three pointer to officially count, your feet must not cross over the line.
Field Goal: A field goal is any shot, other than a foul shot or a shot taken outside the three point line. In can be in the key, or between the key and three point line. These shots are worth two points during a game.
