-From the corner of the fender to the hoop is 24 inches
-From the center of the front of the fender to the hoop is 27.25 inches (this is the worst case scenario)
Add in the 14 inch extension and you are pretty close to the basket. A bump (or even a ramp a foot or so up) would be enough to get it into the basket from pretty much anywhere.
Fun fact: even with the 14'' extension, you still can't touch the hoops.

You forgot the Bumpers. The maximum 14" extension is from your Frame Perimeter, which is inside the Bumpers. Subtract 3-1/4 inches (2-1/2" noodle, 3/4" plywood) from your calculations, and you'll be even farther away from touching a hoop.
