Question

Our basketball team won a game last week by the score of 73–49, and yet not even one man on our team scored as much as a single point. How is that possible?

Answer 1

Answer: It is a woman's team.

Technically, it's impossible to score 73 points in a game of basketball by just scoring one single point by each member of the team .

In basketball, there are 5 players in a team on the pitch at a time, plus 7 substitutes making a total of 12 players. The maximum number of points that can be attained by each individual scoring only one point including substitutes is 12 points.

So all things being equal, the team was a women's team and not a single man scored a point because no man was playing the game.
