I've exchanged fist bumps with partners before a game. I don't think I'd do it during, though. My main reason would be that I simply don't see a reason to do so.

If I wanted to thank a partner for making a good call or for picking up something in my area that I missed, I can easily mention that at halftime or after the game. That way, I have any questions or wish to seek constructive feedback on the situation, there's enough time for that.

A good-bye handshake or final interaction usually happens inside the locker room after we've changed and before we leave for home.

YMMV
