   The hoop is 10 feet high [120 inches]
   52 inches was referring to the size of the backboard
   – NBA regulations are 6 feet wide [72 inches] by 3.5 feet tall[42 inches]
   Here’s a diagram with dimensions: http://www.betterbasketball.com/basketba…

   In the National Basketball Association, the court is 94 feet long by 50 feet wide (28.65 m by 15.24 m). Under International Basketball Federation (FIBA) rules[1], the court is slightly smaller, measuring exactly 28 m by 15 m, although national federations are allowed to use smaller courts, as long as they are at least 26 m by 14 m. A highschool court is slightly smaller, at 84 ft by 50 ft. In amateur basketball, court sizes vary widely. The baskets are always 10 feet (3.05m) above the floor (except possibly in youth competition.)
