A standard basketball game consists of four quarters, each lasting 12 minutes in the NBA, or 10 minutes in international play (FIBA). This means that the total game time is either 48 minutes (NBA) or 40 minutes (FIBA). However, actual game time can be longer due to stoppages like timeouts, fouls, and breaks between quarters.
If you’re referring to a basketball practice, pick-up game, or a different format, the duration can vary depending on the specific situation.
