No. Wrong borough.You went to Cathedral?
in front of the building i grew up we always had a tournament when i was young. it made a little spark and came back 5 years ago but it died again. definitely seeing the shift. when i was too young to remember, my dad says big players used to come by all the time. he said mark jackson was a regular and even chris mullin came by a few times in his st johns days. when it made a spark and came back we had jr smith play there and even chris brown came thru a few times (i know he not in the nba but it was a big deal to people in my hood. ill find the video)
now shyt is dead.

SUWANEE, Ga.- Listed at 6-foot-6, Jordan Tucker has shown that he can be the next big thing in New York.
A rising sophomore at White Plains (N.Y.), Tucker is one of the top wings in the class of 2016 thanks to his versatility and his ability to shoot the basketball. Tucker is a smooth and efficient wing who makes the game look extremely easy.
“My goal is to get Mr. Basketball next year,” Tucker told SNY.tv. “Adding weight is something that I will work on though.”
A new member of the New York Lightning 16U, Tucker feels like he can show what he does best on a regular basis.
“Shooting is my strength, it’s what I do best,” Tucker told SNY.tv. “I want to be able to showcase that. I’m a tall lanky guard, I can put the ball on the floor when I need to. I can rebound and make plays as well. I get a little bit more of a green light to shoot.
Currently ranked No.8 in the Class of 2017 by Future 150, Tucker has fielded offers from Villanova, Xavier, Providence, Oklahoma, Manhattan, Detroit, and Fordham.
Tucker has a very high ceiling thanks to his lengthy and long build. His name will be a big one for years to come in New York.
Tucker has had a solid weekend in Georgia so far, leading the Lightning to a 3-0 record, winning their pool. Tucker and the Lightning will look to move to 4-0 with a win tonight at 6 pm.
