In basketball, each team has five players on the court at any given time. Each player is assigned to different positions defined by the strategic role they play. There are three types of these positions: guard, forward, and center. A standard lineup consists of two guards, two forwards, and one center. The guard positions may be called the "back-court", while the forwards and center are often called the "front-court".
