Joints that are dislocated become weaker, thus are more prone to be dislocated again. Remember Mel Gibson in the Lethal Weapon series? How he dislocated his shoulder say... every five minutes?
You say that you've dislocated it 3-4 times already. It is time to be extremely careful or give up basketball.
I dislocated my thumb (where it is connected to the rest of the hand) playing a racquet sport (which sounds like a weird time to dislocate it, but I did). I stopped playing for a while. Even now, I am very careful with it. If it feels "loose" then i'll immediately take a break.
