Fouls: A foul is when a defender makes physical contact with an offensive player. If a shooter (player attempting to make a basket) is fouled while in the act of shooting than that player would get two free throws. If not shooting (just dribbling) than the offensive team would maintain possession of the ball. A player is disqualified from the game if the player commits 5 fouls.
