Al Buragas

Hi, I’m Al Buragas — the founder of IndoorHooper.

This business started with a simple idea: to build the best mini basketball hoop imaginable - not just any toy, but something real. Something that felt like an actual pro game hoop, scaled down to fit inside a home but designed with care, quality, and authenticity.

It all began when my son was born. Like many new parents, I found myself dreaming about the world I wanted to build for him—what he’d play with, what would inspire him, and how I could be a part of that joy. I wanted to give him something special. Not plastic. Not noisy. Not forgettable. I wanted to make him the ultimate mini hoop — a beautiful, premium piece that felt like a true miniature version of what the pros play on.

After months of sketching, building, testing, and fine-tuning, I created a mini basketball hoop that was different. It didn’t just resemble a real hoop — it felt like one.

Since 2020, we've been making premium mini basketball hoops and accessories that combine craftsmanship, performance, and design. Whether you’re 5 or 55, shooting hoops should feel satisfying and fun—and your gear should look and feel as good as the game itself.
