Maybe it's muscle stiffness? Have you tried stretching your legs/hip flexor?

So many variables to factor..........

Tomorrow you might be jumping higher.

Yeah like enetblazin4eva said... Your vert will vary so much.. its like bench press some days you can go hard and next week you 10 pounds less...

For me tho the day after doin squats i have really good hops i don;t know why.. they should be tired but for some reason i have better hops

its like anything, some days you have it and some days you dont

I'm a 5'8" white guy and I have dunked before on a regulation hoop. It's been a couple years and I'm still trying to get up there again. My body keeps getting older. That's how it goes. I'm almost 30. I think the peak is around 25 years old.

Maybe it's just age.

There is a big difference between two day and two years.........
