There's no such thing.

We have NFHS rules, which school age children play by, NCAA rules which college athletes play by, and NBA rules which pro players play by.

NBA rules are on http://www.NBA.com.

NCAA rules are on the NCAA site but I don't have the exact address with me.

Here is a link to NCAA rule book.

Luis,

You're not talking about the rules used by "USA Basketball" are you? They use FIBA rules. http://www.usabasketball.com/rules/rules.html
