What is a "technical foul"?
A technical foul in basketball is a penalty given for unsportsmanlike behavior or breaking certain game rules, such as arguing with the referee, delaying the game, or using inappropriate language. It is different from a personal foul, which involves physical contact during the game. When a technical foul is called, the opposing team is awarded free throws, and the team committing the foul may face other consequences, like losing possession of the ball.
Example
The coach was assessed a technical foul for excessive arguing.
The referee called a technical foul on the bench for excessive celebrations.
