Everywhere you go throughout the world no matter how rich or poor the country is, you will find tons of people who love the game of basketball. You should definitely know basic basketball skills before even trying to play for a team. If you do decide to take this sport, and you master even the basics, you'll be able to play at least passing well (which is the main part of b-ball)
The following few basic skills can get you started in the game:
1. Boxing Out: when you do this, one player is between a player from the opposing team and the basket. If you want to rebound the ball in the basket and get the point, this is the position. You will stand here and recover a missed shot that bounces backwards.
2. Dribbling: this is the very basic and essential skill of bouncing the ball on the ground and running with it. You use your fingertips to bounce the ball on the ground and back up into your hand.
You have to do this so that you can move legally with the ball. If you hold the ball instead and run more than a few steps this is against the rules. Instead, dribble the ball as you run and you are fine.
