A regulation basketball court is 94 feet long (28m long) and 50 feet wide (15m wide). Each half of the court is 47 feet long and 50 feet wide. An additional half a foot is added around the edge of each side of the court so the length exceeds the width. The three-point-line is 23 feet 9 inches from the basket on the side and 22 feet in the corners. The lane or restricted area for the players is 19-feet wide and extends 15 feet from the basket. The free-throw line is 15 feet from the basket and the backboard measures 6 feet by 3.5 feet.
