Acceleration roughly means “change in velocity.” If this change in velocity is consistently in one direction, the body will reach a point at which its velocity is zero.
Another consideration is when you drop a basketball onto the pavement. The ball falls, hits the ground, and comes back up. Because its direction of motion changed, you know that its velocity MUST have been 0 m/s at some point during the bounce.
This doesn't mean there was no acceleration at this point.
