Size of a basketball backboard Width: 6 feet (72 inches) Height: 3.5 feet (42 inches) Rim: 18 inches in diameter Size of a basketball rim The diameter of the rim is 18 inches The top of the rim should be exactly 10 feet (120 inches) off the ground Distance from the backboard to the back of the rim 6 inches Note: 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) Distance from the free throw line to the backboard 15 feet (180 inches) from the backboard Note: 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) --SOURCE: http://www.betterbasketball.com/basketball-court-dimensions/
