I am 5" 3 with shoes on and can touch rim on a 8"4 hoop. I am only 13 going into 8th grade with a very small wing span.

I find that hard to believe but it is possible, kid must have a lot of hops.

I've seen people 5'4 that are able to dunk, it looks pretty amazing since they are so small.

Looks like we have a lot of sky walkers here. I can't dunk. I'm 6'0 and can barely touch the rim. I don't work out, I must say my work ethic is pretty poor.

I'm 5'8 with a 7'4 standing reach, and yeah, I can't dunk, a few inches from getting rim.

I'm 6'0 w/shoes

I can dunk one handed with a run-up, that's all...Maybe if I improved my vert I could dunk better...

I don't know about the talk with a 9' rim...I could easily throw it down at that height...

I am 6'0 and I cant quite dunk the ring with the ball. My hands cant quite palm it and I lose it easily. That said I DO get a lot of blocks for a guy my size.

I need a good running start and my hands are way to small to do anything but a two handed however....


Sometimes when my friends and I go to Costco we lower the rim down to about 9' at that height I can get sick with it.

Update: I'm still growing at the age of 18.

Physical results from today, no lie, I've grown 3/4 of an inch since my last one (last year this time). 6-5 3/4 in (6-6 in shoes), 187 lbs, 8-5 standing reach. Ugh, being tall sucks. Owntheblocks knows this.

But yeah, now I can dunk pretty hard off one or two feet, one or two hands. I can do a reverse easily, and about 60 % of the time I can toss it off the backboard to myself and throw it down. I have no idea how this is possible considering I don't really work out...ever, the only thing I do is ball once in a while.
