Kimball Union Academy have been over from the US for the past week, playing a series of exhibitions (and blowing out a number of teams in the process). Last night I hit up The Regal to catch them take on a Midnight Madness Select team, and though the game turned out to be a foul plagued 109-82 rout in favour of Kimball, there was one big highlight.
Unfortunately, another defender got in the way of the actual moment the player was dropped, but you get the general idea – Kimball’s Malcolm Brent(?) takes some ANKLES!

I should have played for the select team man. How are thee teams even chosen?
do you have any more video of the kimball union game?
I was there filming for the whole game, but there wasn’t a whole lot of other worthy highlights that will end up online I’m afraid!
the young dude far right is Danny Ainge’s son Crew
Not a great move.. Juat bad D..
Man I feel bad for the defender!!!
Sam,
“No worthy highlights” because KUA jumped out to a 20-0 lead and Devon Thomas scored 24 points…in the first half? Junior Williams gave DT the moniker “aka, the problem”…high DI point guard, surely there were a couple highlights.
Oh, and the night before we were up 30-0 on the London Select 17′s. Maybe a little more emphasis on fundamentals would be a good thing.
Mike,
DT was the only guy worth doing something of from just that one game, but unfortunately, as with the above clip, a lot of my angles were messed up (first time filming in the Regal) – kinda hard to do a mixtape when you have referees standing in the way of the ball handler, or other players getting in the way.
If I’d have known you guys were playing a series of games in London I’d have attended all of them and coulda done something decent, but only found out at the MM game you had had others!
I don’t think you being up 30-0 on the London Select 17s is a result of me showcasing highlights as opposed to fundamentals. That’s what people want to watch, and I hope it promotes the game at the same time – any young player with a bit of common sense will realise being a highlight player is nothing to do with being a good basketball player! It doesn’t appear as though Ball is Life and Hoopmixtape are harming the development of the game in the US…
