ORLANDO - One of my favorite things to do when I was a kid growing up in New Jersey, particularly in the summer when the weather was warm, was play basketball on driveway hoops. I lived in an apartment, so I didn’t have one. But some of my friends did, and we would meet up after school or first thing in the morning on weekends and play on those portable and adjustable glass-backboard hoops for hours, sometimes all the way until it was too dark to see the hoop or even the ball itself.
It was a blast, and because we were at someone’s home, we were able to always stay hydrated by grabbing drinks from the fridge.
