94 feet long by 50 feet wide is a professional basketball court resulting of an are of 4700 square feet.
like the person above said the square footage of an acre is 4840 square feet. an acre is slightly bigger than a basketball court.
another comparison to a regulation football field
an acre is 90 yards of a regulation professional football field. so from the touchdown lown to the 10 yard line of ur opponent by its width.

An acre is 1/10th of a square furlong and is 4840 square yards. A square furlong as you know is 220 by 220 yards. So, an acre will be 22 yards by 220, 44 by 110, 88 by 55 yards etc.
Sorry for not relating to a basketball court. It is decades since I stepped on one.

An acre is 4046 squared meters
A NBA basketball court is 94ft long by 50ft wide...convert to meters (28.65meters by 15.24 meters)
The suface area (in meters) of the Bball court is thus 28.65x15.24m = 436 squared meters.
Arrange about 10 Bball courts together and get an acre of land...approx.

NBA and College – 94 feet long and 50 feet wide
High School – 84 feet long and 50 feet wide
Junior High – 74 feet long and 42 feet wide
---------------------------
let use NBA court
area (NBA court)
= 94 ft * 50 ft
1 NBA court area = 4700 sq ft
now
1 acre = 43560 sq ft
1 acre = (43560/4700 )
1 acre = 9.27 times (NBA basketball court)
