Kentucky basketball coach John Calipari wanted to prove he’s hip to the trends America’s youth is into, so he jumped in his car and found a hoop to do the #DriveByDunkChallenge.
John Calipari did the #DriveByDunkChallenge on the shortest hoop he could find
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
Cal is a trendsetter when it comes to the challenge. He’s the first person to jump out of a loaded Cadillac to do it, and he’s the first man over the age of 55 to throw down. We’ve got to talk about the hoop though.
Cal is 6’2, but this is definitely an eight foot rim tops. He found a nice looking house, with a walled-in yard, with a wildcats branded pro-quality hoop and its own blacktop court. Imagine for one second waking up in the middle of the night and seeing Cal throw it down in your driveway.
For that reason alone we can forgive it being on a child’s hoop.
