Clutch Basket stuck

So when I go to ride my dirtbike, I noticed if I pull in the clutch all the way and give it gas the bike moves as if I didn't have the clutch in. A friend of mine suggested it was grooves in the clutch basket. So I took off the clutch plate cover and removed the springs, pressure plates, clutch plates, and the inner hub. Next was the basket. I pulled it to come out but it get caught on something. It will come coward a little but stop. It's able to spin but it's caught on something. Any suggestions??
