Check basketball court dimensions.
Basketball court dimensions differ by governing body: FIBA uses 28 by 15 metres, the NBA is slightly larger at 28.65 by 15.24, and high school courts are shorter. The three-point line differs more noticeably, from 6.02 m at high school level to 7.24 m in the NBA. Safety zones beyond the boundary lines are what turn playing area into the floor space a building actually has to provide.
Court and footprint area
Playing area = length x width for the chosen standard; footprint = (length + 2 x safety zone) x (width + 2 x safety zone) x courts
These figures are population-average estimates for training and recreational planning only and are not medical advice. Individual responses vary widely. Consult a qualified health professional before starting or significantly changing an exercise programme, particularly if you have any medical condition. Official dimensions, rules and timings should be confirmed against the governing body for your sport.

Yes — 3.05 metres, or ten feet, from the floor to the rim at every level of adult basketball. Junior programmes use lower rings.
Add at least 2 m of safety zone on each side, giving roughly 32 by 19 metres. Competition venues require more, plus benches and officials' areas.
