The most important floor markings are in front of each basket. Parallel to the backboard, and 15 feet from it, is the free throw line, also called the foul line, from which a player makes his free throws after he has been fouled. This line lies within a circle 12 feet in diameter, which is used as a restraining line when jump balls (similar to the center jump) must be held in that half of the court. 3, record 1, English, - free%2Dthrow%20line
