94 feet in length, just like a college floor. Free throw line is 15 feet away from the backboard in high school, college and pros. The three-point line in the NBA is different, deeper than high school and college. I think it is 23' 9" from the backboard.

Bob T is mostly correct, however the three-point line is an arc that is 23 feet nine inches at the top and 22 feet on the baselines, measured from the middle of the basket (not the backboard.)

For a diagram of all the dimensions, see:

Check out the reference website:
...

a. The playing court shall be measured and marked as shown in the court diagram.

b. A free throw lane shall be marked at each end of the court with dimensions and markings as shown on the court diagram. All boundary lines are part of the lane; lane space marks and neutral zone marks are not. The color of the lane space marks and neutral zones shall contrast with the color of the boundary lines. The areas identified by the lane space markings are 2" by 8" and the neutral zone marks are 12" by 8".

c. A free throw line shall be drawn (2" wide) across each of the circles indicated in the court diagram. It shall be parallel to the end line and shall be 15' from the plane of the face of the backboard.

d. The three-point field goal area has parallel lines 3' from the sidelines, extending from the baseline, and an arc of 23'9" from the middle of the basket which intersects the parallel lines.

e. Four hash marks shall be drawn (2" wide) perpendicular to the sideline on each side of the court and 28' from the baseline. These hash marks shall extend 3' onto the court.

f. Four hash marks shall be drawn (2" wide) perpendicular to the sideline on each side of the court and 25' from the baseline. These hash marks shall extend 6" onto the court.

g. Four hash marks shall be drawn (2" wide) perpendicular to the baseline on each side of the free throw lane line. These hash marks shall be 3' from the free throw lane line and extend 6" onto the court.

h. Four hash marks shall be drawn (2" wide) parallel to the baseline on each side of the free throw circle. These hash marks shall be 13' from the baseline and 3' from the free throw lane lines and shall be 6" in length.

i. Two hash marks shall be drawn (2" wide) perpendicular to the sideline, in front of the scorer's table, and 4' on each side of the midcourt line. This will designate the Substitution Box area.
