The second joint component has an anchoring base configured to be fixed to a second bone, and a cup configured to be connected to the anchoring base. The cup has a cylindrical wall defining an outer surface of the cup, a cavity formed by a spherical recess inside of a circular edge at a top of the cylindrical wall, and an attachment post extending away from the cavity and configured to connect to the anchoring base.
