WATCH: High School Senior Cager Destroys Backboard, Gets High Five From Referee

In basketball, it would take much to shatter a glass backboard. Names like NBA greats Shaquille O’Neal and Darryl Dawkins come to mind, but some do it as well in the amateur scene.

The latest to do it was a 6-foot-3 guard from Joshua High School named Tyler Stone. The senior player broke the glass backboard mid-game on Saturday when they faced Ennis High School.

Stone beat everyone to the ring in a breakaway play and slammed the basketball so hard into the rim, imploding the glass backboard and left shard raining on the floor.

No one was hurt from the play, but the rare thing most would see below is the game referee giving the Joshua captain a high five for the feat.

Stone’s massive dunk marks the second-straight season that a player has craked the glass, the Dallas Morning News reported.

People who were in attendance went from being elated, stunned and then became raucous when Stone executed the high-flying game move.

Game officials were able to replace the hoop and Joshua High School went on to win the game, 70-62. Stone finished with 11 points, but this scene will forever be etched as one of his unforgettable memory as a senior.

The win allowed the Owls to improve to 5-6 in the ongoing season.

In 2020, another player who made a name for himself when he broke a basketball backboard is Chris Hampton of Northwest Guilford in Greensboro, N.C. He did the same damage in February 2020. The only difference is that his dunk attempt failed to hit its mark.

Hampton was all alone during a play and ended up botching the dunk and ended up pulling down the rim and shattering the backboard. A video of that can be seen below.

The only difference between that and Stone’s game is that the match had to be postponed. It turned out the school did not have a replacement backboard prepared. No one was reported hurt from the incident as well.
