Basketball court dimensions in practice vary in overall length and width. In many areas of the country, older high school gymnasiums in particular have smaller overall size than regulation. Many of these same gyms have varying backboard designs and dimensions.
Even though Pro, College, High School and Junior High School courts may differ on overall size and layout, the interior markings for the "Foul Line", "The Key" and "The Backboard and Rim" are the same. The NBA court has a unique 3 point line (arc).Go to :

The Foul Line:
For all courts the "foul line" distance is 15 feet from the foul line to the front of the backboard. This measurement is commonly confused as from the center of the basket and front of the rim.
The Key:
Standard for all basketball courts, "the key" (sometimes called "the lane") is 12 feet wide. Regulation courts have the backboard extending out 4 feet over the baseline into the key. A 6 foot arc (half circle) extends from the foul line away from the basket to complete the key.
