Basket (basketball)
The basket or hoop is a piece of basketball equipment, consisting of the rim and net. It hangs from the backboard. The first basket was a peach basket installed by James Naismith. The bottom was eventually cut out of the basket, and the basket was eventually replaced with the metal rim and net. Today there are breakaway rims.
A field goal is a shot that goes through the basket.
A rim, hoop, or basket ring is a piece of basketball equipment in the form of a circular metal ring that supports the net. It hangs from the backboard. A professional rim has a diameter of the 18 inches (460 mm). A slam dunk requires one to jump high enough to get his hand above or over the rim. Today there are breakaway rims.
Specifications of FIBA:
In the NBA, the rim is a metal ring with an interior diameter of exactly 18 inches (46 cm) that has pressure-release mechanism. It is painted orange. The rim's upper edge is positioned exactly 10 feet (3.0 m) from the floor and its closest part to the backboard has a distance of 6 inches (15 cm) from it.
