Three-Point Line
The Three-Point Line is a boundary on a basketball court that designates the area where a shot made from beyond the line is worth three points. This line is typically arc-shaped and is located at varying distances from the basket, depending on the level of play, such as in the NBA or FIBA competitions.
Players who shoot from beyond the three-point line can significantly impact the game's score, as these shots are often more challenging than regular two-point shots. The introduction of the three-point line has changed offensive strategies, encouraging teams to develop long-range shooting skills and create more dynamic gameplay.
