What is the highest number of points a team can score in one possession?

The highest number of points a team can score in one possession in basketball is 6 points. This can occur if a player is fouled while making a shot and successfully converts a three-point shot, followed by making the resulting free throw. Additionally, a team can score 7 points if they make a three-pointer and then are fouled again, converting the free throw and subsequently making a successful basket from the resulting possession. However, standard scoring allows for a maximum of 6 points in one possession through a combination of a three-pointer and a free throw.
