Street Hoops

Word to homeboy hopefuls: With its tongue-in-cheek take on street life, this consummate B-baller keeps it more real than most of today’s endorsement-whore NBA superstars. Assemble your own team of back-alley ringers, customizing them with fresh gear, wicked tattoos, funky hairdos, and enough gold jewelry to make Mr. T pity his own fool self. Then it’s time for your hoop warriors to duke it out on the blacktop for street cred and cold, hard cash (pregame wagering is highly encouraged), or let your fly-guy all-stars show off signature slam dunks and Globetrotter-style stunts, all to a staggering soundtrack supplied by DMX, Ludacris, and other hip-hop MVPs. It’s the most fun court time you’ll find this side of a Jayson Williams trial.
