Gunnin’ For That #1 Spot DVD – Kevin Love , Michael Beasley

On the corner of 155th and Frederick Douglas Boulevard in Harlem lies Rucker Park. By appearances the concrete pavement anchored on one side by its run down slab bleachers is no different than any other basketball court in the city but this is the place where nicknames are indelibly branded and legends are born. On September 1 2006 the top 24 high school basketball players in the nation stepped out on this court that once saw the likes of Wilt Chamberlain Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Dr. J to compete in the first annual Elite 24 all-star game. Gunnin’ For That #1 Spot follows eight of these players as they prepare to showcase their skills at the most legendary playground in the world. Directed by Adam Yauch (MCA of the Beastie Boys and director of Awesome; I F***ing Shot That!) the documentary trails these players on the fast track to the NBA as they are being groomed to be in the spotlight of a multi-million dollar game. Combining Yauch’s unique directing style with raw hip hop music Gunnin’… highlights these soon to be NBA All Stars.
