Our Experts highlight the best basketball hoops to match your needs. Whether you’re looking for an in-ground, portable, or mounted basketball hoop, we carry the best basketball hoop for you and your family!
Best In-Ground Basketball Hoops
An in-ground basketball hoop is permanently installed into the ground, usually with a concrete base.
-
Pros: Much more stable and solid playing experience
-

Best Portable Basketball Hoops
Portable basketball hoops are on wheels and usually constructed with a plastic base and metal pole.
-
Pros: Moveable, easier to set up, more affordable

Expert Tip | Many people use sand to weigh down their portable basketball hoops, but this can be messy and lead to uneven weight distribution. Using the H2Old BaseGel is a great alternative. Whether you want to store outside year-round or store away during winter, this gel is freeze-thaw durable and easy to remove from the base.
Best Mounted Basketball Hoops
Mounted basketball hoops are designed to be mounted to a fixture like a garage.
-
Pros: Take up less space, more stable than portable hoops
-
Cons: Need a reliable structure for mounting
