True or False? The shot clock is a clock that keeps track of how many shots your team takes.
False
The shot clock is a clock that starts at the beginning of each team's possession. The team must shoot the ball before the clock expires. The shot clock was first introduced in the NBA in 1954. Howard Hobson suggested the shot clock. In 2009 the NBA and FIBA shot clock lasted 24 seconds, in men's college basketball it lasted 35 seconds, and in women's college basketball it lasted 30 seconds. If a team does not attempt a shot before the shot clock expires the other team gains possession. If a shot clock violation does occur it is marked in the game log as a turnover.
