it really depends where you are on the court, if you want average total diameter...the answers above are probably right. One thing im sure of is the distance varies a couple of feet or meters between the corners and the key. For example in the NBA i believe the distance is 22ft at the corners and 25ft at the top of the key

The free throw line is 15 feet from the plane of the backboard. From the direct center of the hoop the line would be 13 feet 9 inches. These are stats from NBA.com

I'm a basketball player myself and I know that the 3 point shot is the hardest to make. What I did to consistently hit the rim on 3s, was slowly shoot farther away from the foul line. Once I developed strength and the ability to shoot further away from the basket, I just practiced my 3s. A 3 pointer is almost like a foul shot except that you're jumping and that it's a longer shot. \n\nIt's like a foul shot because you have to keep your form and it's all about muscle memory. If you keep shooting free throws, you'll be almost automatic. Here's a drill I do at the foul line to improve. I do best out of 10 sessions. I would shoot 10 free throws and see how many I make. Then, I'd start over again. I probably shoot 100 free throws when I go out and practice. See, it has made  me become a FT shooter and that has helped me with my 3s too. Because once you're used to shooting FTs, you can apply the same drill to the 3 pointer. I hope this helps, but here's a website that talks about shooting a basketball in general:\nhttp://www.mcpasd.k12.wi.us/~kms/webfolder01_02/webwj13335/index.htm

The basketball court comes in different shapes and sizes. In the National Basketball Association, the court is 94 feet long by 50 feet wide (28.65 m by 15.24 m). A FIBA court is slightly smaller, at 28 m by 15 m. In street ball the court is much smaller than in NBA.

if all the lines are equal in every way (duplicate) then you can put a measurment (dimension) from the existing line to a datum or border whichever you choose and then put a callout like 3@12.00' (3 lines at 12.00 feet)in the dimensionwith a arrow pointing at the line.\n\njeff

3 point shot never used to exist.\n\nBasketball used to be about 5 men working as a team. Now, the basics are lost and there is too much showboating.\n\nWhen did traveling cease to be a violation? Today, they allow 5,6,7,8,9 running steps while carrying the ball to the layup!\n\nYears ago, blacks never played Basketball. Today, whites rarely play basketball.\n\nYears ago, 6'4 was tall. Today, 6'4 will get you stepped on!

The three-point field goal area has parallel lines 3' from the sidelines, extending from the baseline and an arc of 23'9" from the middle of the basket which intersects the parallel lines.

10 feet, just like any other level.  It is also 15 feet from the backboard to the free throw line.

Please know what you are talking about before you ask question only 3 or 2 point shots in basketball. There are 4 point plays but thats the highest. \n\n     Like How to Stand\n\n     I think its hilarious that you believe that your question makes sense. The only way a ref would give you eight points if you throw it backwards from full court

(m)\n\nLength of a basketball court\n94 feet (1128 inches)\nNote: Many high school and college courts are 84 feet.\n\nWidth of a basketball court\n50 feet (600 inches)\n\nSize of a basketball backboard\nWidth: 6 feet (72 inches)\nHeight: 3.5 feet (42 inches)\n\nSize of a basketball rim\nThe diameter of the rim is 18 inches\nThe top of the rim should be exactly 10 feet (120 inches) off the ground\n\nDistance from the backboard to the back of the rim\n6 inches\nNote: In other words, the front of the rim is 24 inches from the backboard (18 inches of which is the rim, and the other 6 inches the flat metal piece connecting the rim to backboard)\n\nDistance from the free throw line to the backboard\n15 feet (180 inches) from the backboard\nNote: Due to the fact that the rim protrudes forward from the backboard, the actual distance from the free throw line to the front of the rim is just 13 feet (not including the elevation factor)\n\nSize of the key\n19 feet (228 inches) from the baseline out of bounds line to the free throw line\n12 feet (144 inches) in width, across the lane\n\nThe basketball 3 point line\nIt's important to note that the 3 point arc is not the same distance from the center of the rim at all spots. This results from the fact that on the baseline, the 3 point arc begins with a straight line, before starting its curve. Once the curve begins, the distance stays consistent all the way around the arc.\n   For the college and high school 3 point arc, there is a straight line of 5.25 feet (63 inches) that runs until the arc begins. For the NBA 3 point line, there is a straight line of just over 14 feet (approximately 169 inches) before the 3 point arc begins.\n   Once the 3 point arc begins, the college and high school 3 point arc is 19.75 feet (19 feet 9 inches, or 237 inches).\n   The NBA distance is 23.75 feet (23 feet, 9 inches, or 285 inches). However, on the baselines, with a line drawn directly from the center of the rim to the sideline, the NBA distance is 22 feet (264 inches).\n\nThe markings around the key\nThe blocks are exactly 12 inches in width, and 8 inches deep. The other three tabs on each side of the lane are two inches in width, and 8 inches deep. The distance between the baseline and the block is exactly 7 feet. The distance from the end of the block to the first line is 3 feet. Each additional line is another 3 feet (36 inches) away from the end of the previous line. However, with each line being 2 inches in width, the distance from the beginning of the first block to the beginning of the following line block is 38 inches.\n\nThe circle above the key\nThe radius of the half circle above the key is 6 feet (72 inches). The diameter is obviously equal to the width of the key (or the length of the free throw line), 12 feet (144 inches). \n\nThe NBA charge line\nThe new NBA charge line (in the NBA, players must be outside this arc to take a charge) has a radius of 4 feet (48 inches). The radius' origin is directly under the center of the rim. The arc stops at a point even with the center of the rim.

if you listen to the tv commentators, you'll hear them say, 22 or 23. I give them props coz they are quite right on where the guy is shooting the 3pointer. But distance from the line to the basket is actually 20feet, and that is the standard professional league length according to the walking sports encyclopedia, XTRA SPORTS 570's, STEVE HARTMAN.....and I believe him.

have fun with that. i live in america as a 6' sg/pg and shoot over 50% from 3. the most ive done is talk to a d2 coach or two. but fill out the ncaa clearinghouse info and just look on college websites and email coaches. that and make a video of yourself playing real games and send that to them.

Basketball is played by two teams of five players each on a rectangular court, generally 50 by 94 feet for college and professional teams, 50 by 84 feet for high school players. (These dimensions are called "ideal" in the rules; they are not definitely prescribed, and high school teams often have smaller courts.) The court is divided into halves by the halfcourt line.\n\nAt the center of a court is the center jump circle, and at either end of the court, 4 feet from the end line, there is a basket, a rim 18 in in diameter and 10 feet above the floor, from which hangs a net of white cord 15 to 18 in long. Behind each basket is a backboard. For college and professional play, it is a glass rectangle 72 in wide by 48 in high; high schools may use a fan-shaped backboard 54 in wide. Beneath each basket a 12-foot lane (16 feet in professional play) is marked, ending at the free throw line, which is 15 feet from the basket. The free throw circle is inscribed around the line.\n\nThe 3-point line is an arc 19 feet, 9 inches from the basket in college basketball, 20 feet, 6 inches under international rules. In the NBA, the line is 23 feet, 9 inches from the basket for most of its length but only 22 feet away in the corners.\n\nThe basketball is spherical, 29 ½ to 30 inches in circumference and 20 to 22 ounces in weight. When dropped from a height of 6 feet a properly inflated ball will bounce to a height of 49-54 inches.
