Start with the playing area.
FIBA’s court is 28 × 15 metres, measured inside the boundary lines. The NBA court is 94 × 50 feet. The surrounding clear floor area is not part of those playing-court measurements.
Basket and board.

Use the right drawing for the job.
This guide helps you read the court. For installation or competition approval, use the complete equipment document: tolerances, padding, clearance and supports matter alongside the headline dimensions. A fan diagram is not a build specification.
