Teen Basketball giant dominates school rivals

Reading Brit's comment on basketball! LOL, it's like asking a Yank his opinions about County Cricket! LOL

My nickname'sㄇ where you have theㄇopportunityㄇdreaming about Ďatingㄇaㄇmillionaireㄇ and make it true!
A lot of ignorant people on here. For those of you who know a thing or two about street ball, Rucker is up there as one of the best street ball venues, if not the best, in the world. It isn't playing at your local Y or your local outdoor court. Durant caught fire here and those shots are from 30 plus feet. And the defense is only non-existent on the last shot. Plus, by my count, he had 42 points at the start of that clip (and finished with 66 for the game). Number 21 on the opposing team is Jeremy Hazell (who just finished an excellent career at Seton Hall) and the white guy on Durant's team is Randy Gill, one of the better street ballers around today. I'm sure there are other elite college players and street ballers out there as well, but I can't make out anyone else from this short clip. But, go ahead and say that Durant is just lighting up a bunch of chumps who can't play ball if it makes you feel better. Or better yet, don't comment on this page if you have never stepped up and played on a real street ball court or if you are just going to make some racist comment.58735143924

boxing has weight divisions, why not height divisions in bball? It is amusing to see someone say ''that is some talent'' - being tall is a talent?

do they need to contact air traffic control before the match?

All american sports are elitist. you have to be tall to play basketball, big to play football, and an #$%$ to play baseball.

How exactly is this fun for any of the other kids - on EITHER team?? And to the people clapping and going whoo whhooo throughout the video clip. If you're truley that impressed by that display, Get a life. That "kid" is almost 2 feet taller than all the others kids. As others have likely already posted, being tall is not a skill.

How high does cotton grow?

well things are looking up for the team now.

hmm Being tall isnt a talent. He does have a lot to learn..damn that height gives him an advantage, any other sport he would fail due to his agility and speed, then again in USA being bulky and tall is required for most of their sports, American Football, even Baseball and Basketball

The number 34 jersey was once Hakeem Olajuwon's (of Houston Rockets 1982-'89).And I hope he keeps his "head down" just like "Hakeem the Dream".

Glad he lives in good old USA where he will not face discrimination on account of his physical advantage and race. Goodluck to you Mamadou .

He really wanted to be a fighter pilot!

He needs some experience in a higher caliber setting of the sport, since college ain't really giving him any form of challenge

love the way they have put a big red ring around the 7'5" player in case you cant spot him above everyone else

I'm 6ft 2 and feel small compared to this giant of men! Unfortunately he may suffer cardiovascular problems later in life due to his size as taller people are more prone to experience long-term health issues.

Increased workload on the heart is an effect produced by his height as a greater systolic pressure would be required to maintain his blood pressure. It's not normal to stand 7ft 5 but due to conditions such as giantism and acromegaly these physical changes can occur.

Robert Pershing Wadlow is tallest recorded human in history 8ft 11.1inch but saddly he died at the age of 22 because of the condition hypertrophy which also affected all his organs causing failure in the long-term.

right person in the right place.hope he will dominate the world one day.Hats off.

I like how he's circled in red, just so you know

OK, whose been slipping the lad growth hormones? People just aren't meant to be that big.

He lost the ball at the start of that match despite being a foot taller than the guy he was facing.

Oh brilliant, I just sat through a ridiculous advert to be told the clip was no longer available... :/
