You might wanna start with a LOT of water outside the gym and maybe a half water half Gatorade mix when u hoop honestly. Hooping is taxing and can dry you out pretty bad. Bananas are good for helping with splints because of the potassium. The mid soles good and sturdy on your reebok right?

Never hooped in Kobe's but I know those run kinda small I wear a 15 in those and Lebron's

I'm usually a 14 Nike wise.

I recommend rest. Have you tried running on grass instead of concrete or hardwood @Max. ?

shin splints shouldn't be a constant pain reminder, they usually flare back up when you start running. you might wanna go to the doctor breh and make sure it's not something more serious like a stress fracture

If you got insurance, go to an ortho doc and get some insoles custom made for you. The alternative is some right out of the Walgreens.

I have supination like a mawfukka so a prolonged sprint where I land on my heels first, my shyt would be flamin' (shin splints has a lot to do with how you strike the ground as you run).

Time to find a different shoe that somewhat compensates for how you strike the ground.

If it's recurring you should go to a physio. A friend of mine thought he had shin splints from jogging but it was something much more serious and his bone could have snapped easily.

Constant leg pain can be from poor blood circulation. Ive seen that many times in bigger dudes. U should really go get checked out. No way should ur legs be hurting for more then 5 days regardless of what your doing with them at the time it happened

I had shin splints when I did track for like a month straight nothing helped. Stretching out, rolling out, staying hydrated, nothing. But I bought some dr. Sholls active series gel insoles.

They went away within a week and never returned. I still have them in my running shoes to this day, these are a lifesaver
