Your first basketball system needs to be an awesome system. You will likely need it to be mobile, adjustable, and easy to set up. The Lifetime 90171 portable basketball hoop provides you just that and more. This system has a portable, 12-gallon base that can be filled with water or sand. How the system attaches to the base also provides you some additional space to add more weight on top of the base if needed. Even your younger players will be able to reach the hoop with their first shots using the 90171s telescoping pole, which can have the rim height all the way up to a 10-foot regulation height and all the way down to a 7.5 foot kid height. These systems are also easy to setup so you can start playing basketball at your own home sooner.
