Actually, the most recent (2017-18) NFNS Basketball Court Diagram does not show the Neutral Zone Blocks. It shows the two inch wide hash marks delineating the three Lane Spaces on each side of the Free Throw Lane, which the first lane space starting 7'-00" from the End Line.
But I can remember the pre Three-Point FG Era when the first markings on the FT Lane measured from the End Line were the Neutral Zone Blocks. The NZ Blocks were 7'-00" from the End Line. The first lane space was 3'-00" wide measured from the NZ Block toward the End Line. When I played there were two, and then after I started officiating there were three more marked lane spaces. BUT, unmarked lane spaces, 3'-00" wide and 3'-00" deep, continued along the FT Lane and around the outside of the FT Circle.
