Red Bull: Pro-Am commissioners building summer hoops tradition unlike any other

Read more about Red Bull’s Pro-Am Basketball Classic by Sam Cohn, here.

“Thursday night featured a familiar matchup between the Rumph and Drew. Overseas pro Samme Givens from Philly has experience going toe-to-toe in past Rumph Classics with Montrezl Harrell, an NBA vet enlisting with the home team. Givens wasted no time waging war with Harrell on the game’s opening possession, getting a bucket and letting him hear about it.
“’That feeling [of summer basketball] is different,” Morak said. “People don’t care who you are, how much money you make or where you play, they wanna see you perform. And they’ll let you know if you’re not playing well. … That’s what the platform is all about.’”
