hit off backboard
There are 15 ft from the free throw line to the backboard.
Free throw line from basketball rim is 15 feet. The rim is twice the size of a basketball measuring across. A basketball is 9 - 9 1/2 inches long. So that means that the free throw line from the backboard is 16 feet 6 inches, or 16 feet 7 inches.
The free throw line is always 15 ft from the line to the backboard
If you throw it in the square on the backboard correctly. it will most likely go in. :D
Yes you can shoot any shot with the backboard, sometimes people say it looks bad. It actually increases your percentage when you use the backboard. Yes, it is perfectly legal to shoot a free throw off the backboard. Some might say that it looks bad, but whatever allows you to make the free-throw, besides stepping over the line or taking too long is alright! Yah, but it's doesn't always look that great. It's best to swish every single one!!
yes you can. in fact there is a recent, and very popular event where Kobe Bryant threw the ball off the backboard, followed it in and dunked it. i believe there is a video on youtube about it.
No matter the age or level of competition, the free-throw line in basketball is a standard 15 feet from the backboard. However, the distance between the backboard and the baseline may vary due to the size restrictions in a gymnasium.
It is not illegal to throw it off the backboard, provided that the ball hits the rim at some point. Any time a player does not hit the rim during a free throw attempt (whether it is inadvertent or not) he forfeits his free throw attempt, even if he has one or more free throws forthcoming.
Answer 15 feet. The center of the goal is 13 feet 9 inches from the back of the free throw line. From the center of the goal to the backboard it is 1 foot 3 inches. 13' 9" + 1' 3" = 15 ' Typical placement of the backboard is to have its back 15 feet from the back of the free throw line, and inside the base line by 4 feet. This is why the arc falls off at 5 feet 3 inches ( 63") from the base line. ( The beginning of the corners )
15 ft from the backboard, 13 feet 9 inches form the back of the line to the center of the goal and measured horizontally.
