agree MariyaN (X) : "Basketball court" is only the surface on which the game is played. I think зал for playing basketball should be translated as "gym": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basketball_court

agree Rachel Douglas : Often without "indoor." / Understood, but what I meant was that _indoor_ basketball courts are often called simply "basketball courts," since most basketball courts are indoor, anyway.

"зал" means it must be indoor, an outdoor court would never be called "зал"; I see - we're in agreement then :)
