Last night at the Tri-State Classic on 145th and Lenox, Shammgod Wells blessed the hometown crowd with a punishing performance: 38 points, 15 assists and highlight after highlight. The crowd was hype to see their native son return and rep the block. “We scored 38 and 15.” Thats how you know you are reppin’, when every victory is not just a personal one, but one for your hood. He not only lit up the scoreboard, but got the W. Always gracious, he showed love to everybody, even stopping to kiss an elder on the cheek. This dude should run for office. God Obama.

Thats the man right there! I loved watching him at Providence. His handles and passing was unbelievable. And that Elite 8 run in the ‘97 NCAA’s was one of the best underdog stories ever. Wish he could have stuck in the league.

Unfortunately I just stumbled upon the game with my camera. Best believe the camcorder is in the duffle bag from now on.

This guy was a solid jumpshot away from being an NBA all-star. I never could understand how someone just cant develop a jumper. It’s all mechanics and practice.

Lived in Texas all my life. But best believe when my kids ask me who were the top ball handlers I have seen play. God Shammgod is one of the first to come out. Much Respect Shamm.. (If you still got it, why not give the NBA another shot.)
if any vidz out of Shamm, Raf (besides And1),and any others send to coachmesports@yahoo.com great learning tool for our team.
