    No, in the NBA they don't have to pass the ball a certain number of times before shooting, unless of course the ball is out of bounds. The only people that can determine the amount of passes are the coach, and the players.

    As long as the ball is not coming in bounds, they don't have to pass it to anyone.

    No they dont have too. The only time they pass the ball is when they want too. Some NBA players like to take the matters into their own hands

    Other than the ball being passed in bounds, it is not necessary for a ball to be passed. Having coached for many years, I will say it is usualyy better if it is passed and worked for a better shot.
