Streetball hits the court

Ball4Real is a 30-city tournament, where a team consisting of some of the best streetballers in the country challange local streetball teams, on a regular basketball court inside an arena. At the end of the tour, they'll select two players from all the teams they play to join their tour and sign a $100 000 contract each.

They kicked off their tour here in Seattle and I got to shoot both the tryouts and the game. It was amazing to witness. The stuff they did during the game (not set up or anything) was mind blowing. Here's a selection.

Dude, nice job! Good seeing overall man. I really like these frames Andrei. The first, third and fourth are great.

Andrei, Best sports assignment ever? Probably an exaggeration, but I am sure it was more fun than a regular game. I like the color and shapes in the first frame, but I wish the guy on the left was in profile or something so it wasn't just a big back. It is hard to tell them apart from a standard game (visually), so I am not sure how you would do that (since I wasn't there) Keep it up.
