To find the approximate distance between the top of the player's head and the basketball hoop, you'll need to subtract the player's height from the height of the basketball hoop.

Height of the basketball hoop above the court = 120 inches
Player's height = 62 inches
To find the distance between the top of the player's head and the basketball hoop:

120 inches - 62 inches = 58 inches
Therefore, the approximate distance between the top of the player's head and the basketball hoop is 58 inches.
