Points are used in basketball to record the score of a game. Points can be earned by making free throws, which are worth one point, or field goals, which are for two points when made inside the three-point line or three points when made outside of it.

After a game, the team with the most points is considered to be the winner. After regulation play, if the score is still tied, one or more overtime periods are played to decide the winner.
