Maybe its me and how I extend my arm or whatever, don't know what to tell you. I wish I could have "just done it". A regular size bball would come loose out of my hand when I tried what you're saying. Believe me I tried.

I can get my fingers wrapped on the rim. Hoping to be able to dunk by 30, but it's not gonna happen

At 5'11 I could dunk a volleyball in HS. At age 46 and a couple of vascular surgeries later, I can probably tap the backboard and that's about it. First time I touched the rim was in the spring of my freshman year in HS at about 5'8...thought for sure I'd be able to dunk it by the time I was a senior...small hands.

I shite you not, while playing in a tournament during my junior yr in high school (93) a guy tried to go into the game with strength shoes on. Of course the stripes stopped that before he got in. It was hilarious.

I used to be able to, but I think that time has passed. I think my knees would explode upon returning to the ground.

5'10" I could Chris Jackson dunk in HS. lol.

White kids can jump...

I tried to touch the rim about a year or 2 ago, I got about halfway up the net. Felt good but the landing was brutal. I think if I could have gravity stop holding me back I could dunk again.

Yep. Squats, deadlifts, leg press for additional volume, box jumps, calf raises, etc

Hell no! I could from age 14 to maybe 25 but now I can probably touch the rim and that is it.

I hear you. I stopped coaching a couple of years ago. I probably will not touch a ball until my daughter starts playing in a few years. I am determined to dunk at least once again. When this weight comes off, I'm gng to throw it down one more time. hopefully, Ill get it on video.
