    Well we have no clue until the product hits the floor but it sure seems like coach has put together a "Golden" roster of talent!
    Just need one more big and we are SOLID! (IMO)

    Richard has serious NBA potential too with his length, defense and scoring at all 3 levels

    We’ll see how it translates to the SEC but he’s definitely a late bloomer. 6’10+ wingspan with his stroke is about a lock to atleast get a look if he plays solid at this level

    I still play with the friends, but real competing is getting harder in my mid-40's. Thankful I can still hoop!

    I’m in my mid 40’s and still ball out! Body feels like crap afterwards, but I wear it as a badge of honor. I haven’t learned to play old man ball yet. I kept my young man’s style of play.

    I have a group of guys who get together twice a week to play half court. 40 y/o to 60-ish. I’m just glad I can still play. It’s more fun than work, that’s for sure

    I was still playing until covid. I'm now 50. Will definitely get back out assuming it restarts in the fall.

    I had two pickup games. one over 30 and one over 40. The 40+ game would only have 8 a lot. Just do "dribble over half court" and it takes all the crazy out and really opens the spacing up. I love 4v4 full court

    Well, I definitely don’t like 4 on 4 full court either. I only play 5 on 5 full court these days. But hey man, just busting your chops… however you guys choose to play is great!

    Ehlers Danlos has reaked havoc on my joints so even in my low 40s I'm done playing basketball. Never would have imagined it given how much ball I grew up playing.
