Penny Hardaway’s dazzling 2019 recruiting haul got even better Saturday when Memphis basketball obtained its 2d dedication in as many days.
Little Rock graduate switch Rayjon Tucker introduced via social media that he’s going to spend his very last season of eligibility with the Tigers, becoming a crucial veteran piece in next 12 months’ backcourt.

The 6-foot-5 guard became considered the second one-first-rate graduate switch this year by means of ESPN after averaging 20.Three points, 6.7 rebounds and 1.8 assists at Little Rock during the 2018-19 season. Tucker, a Charlotte, N.C., local, additionally shot 41.1 percent from the three-factor variety.
Tucker picked Memphis over Auburn, Kansas and Iowa State but tweeted that he has now not pulled his name out of the NBA draft. He spent the first two seasons of his university profession at Florida Gulf Coast earlier than shifting to Little Rock.
His choice comes right at the heels of 4-big name guard Lester Quinones’ assertion Friday that he might signal with Memphis.
Quinones pushed the Tigers’ recruiting class into the top 5 nationally, consistent with Rivals and 247 Sports. He is joined by means of East High star James Wiseman, the No. 1 recruit in the USA, in addition to pinnacle-50 prospect D.J. Jeffries of Olive Branch, pinnacle-a hundred recruit Damion Baugh of Tennessee Prep and East High standout Malcolm Dandridge.
Tucker, however, fills a want given his combination of athleticism, enjoy and out of doors shooting contacts. Forward Isaiah Maurice is currently the most effective other senior on the team’s roster.

While the standard height of a basketball system is to have the rim set at 10 ft., most beginning players will find this high of a rim to be very difficult to practice their shot. Many basketball systems have a fixed-height design and so younger players would have no choice but to wait to grow tall and strong enough to have the ball reach the rim. This waiting period wastes many useful years the player could be developing their shot. Because of this problem, many systems today feature height-adjustable rims. Lower-end basketball hoops from Lifetime Products and Spalding feature height adjustments down to a 7.5-ft. high rim.
Other high-end systems like Spalding’s Arena View line, Goalsetter basketball systems, and others can adjust to much lower heights; some systems can even go as low as 5.5 ft. While such a low height is much easier to shoot on, 5.5 ft. is probably not necessary. Most youth recreational leagues start players shooting and a rim height of 7-8 ft. This range makes the players have to work to develop their shot while not crushing their hopes by having the rim too far out of reach. High-end systems that have this range include Mammoth Basketball Hoops, Goalsetter Basketball Systems, and Arena View Basketball Goals.
Break-away Rims
As a basketball player develops their game, particularly male athletes, the rim design will begin to be important. Different rims provide better playability as players reach the age of dunking. Performing a slam dunk does not occur often in younger athletes; but, as a player reaches the High School age, they will likely be able to develop their vertical jump sufficiently to dunk the basketball. At this point in the basketball player’s development, static or stationery rims are likely to be broken and their basketball system is likely to be damaged.
In most high schools, the NCAA, and certainly the NBA, break-away rims are used. The break-away design allows the rim to be slightly displaced out of the mounting mechanism attached to the backboard and to snap back into place after the rim is released. This features not only provides greater longevity out of the basketball system but also provides safety for the player. Were a player to dunk sufficiently hard on a static rim, the rim could be completely torn off the backboard and the player would fall in whichever direction his or her momentum was going. This kind of problems are minimized with a break-away rim.
