im 5'8 15 years old standin vert 16inch 17-18 runnin how many more inches would you all say i need to be able to dunk cleanly and just on a 10 foot ring?
Well let's do it mathematically. there is 120 inches in ten feet. 5'8''=68 inches then add ur 18'' of running vert 68+18=86 120-86=34'' Now that would give u a 52'' vertical. Highly unlikey but it is likely that you should hopefully grow to a good 6'1''. that's 5 more inches cuz ur only 15. that makes it 47'' it's been done before.

Let's 4get that math. I'm 6'3'' with a 26'' vert and can get my wrist on the rim evertime and dunk off an alley oop.

So finally I would say if you got to 6' or 6'1'' in the next yr. you would need about 10-12 more inches of vert to dunk and that is highly reasonable with proper training, nutrition, and desire. Hope that helped
