Durability and a large safe-play area make Bison's Mega-Duty Playground Basketball System great for areas where games get rough. This system features a hot-dip galvanized steel pole with a 72-inch safe-play area and 48-inch in-ground bury. It has backboard braces, and the goal mounts directly through the backboard to the pole to virtually eliminate stress on the backboard when players hang on the rim.
