He had a scholarship to Penn State, then transferred to IUPUI. His dream, of course, was to play in the NBA. It never happened but Cameron was smart enough not to chase that elusive dream overseas until it was too late. He was ready for Stage 2 of his life and found it with Indianapolis-based Knox Pro Train LLC, which works with WNBA and NBA players such as Hoosier natives George Hill of the Pacers and the Memphis Grizzlies' Zach Randolph. "We do training year-around from middle school to high school to the pros," Cameron said. "Indianapolis is a mecca for basketball but there are no programs, no summer leagues here, so we put our heads together and made it happen." CEO Carlos Knox coached at IUPUI, in the Continental Basketball Association and in the Middle East. He also had a brief NBA career with the Pacers. Saturday night at the University of Indianapolis, Knox and Cameron will present their much- anticipated "Ball For It All Classic" featuring several NBA players seeking serious competition during the ongoing lockout. Included are Kevin Durant, Jeff Teague, Gordon Hayward, Mike Conley Jr., Shelvin Mack, D.J. White, JaJuan Johnson, John Wall, Jeff Green, Caron Butler, Will Bynum, Michael Beasley, Greg Monroe, Zach Randolph and Eric Gordon. "There won't be any college players, nobody overseas or off the street -- all pros," Cameron said. "I'm very excited. It's just a blessing to be involved with your passion. "Many people don't have that opportunity." Cameron said the more than 20 NBA players scheduled to appear are doing it for free. "They got to stay in shape and it's very rare that they can play with different NBA players," Cameron added. "Kevin Durant set the tone, the pace, this summer for all those guys by playing in summer leagues across the country. "The LeBrons, the Carmelos, the Chris Pauls and the Kobes have been following right through. It's a good idea for them to do this to keep their fans." All game proceeds will go to Operation Rebirth and the George Hill Foundation. Copyright 2011 nwitimes.com. All rights reserved.

  • Publication: Ajc Date: 5/12/14
    PUBLICATION: AJC DATE: 5/12/14 How close were the Hawks to the Eastern finals? By Mark Bradley The history of the Atlanta Hawks is strewn with what-ifs. What if they’d kept Julius Erving, who played three exhibition games for them in 1972 before a judge ordered him back to the old ABA? What if they hadn’t traded Pete Maravich? What if Dominique Wilkins, as opposed to Cliff Levingston, had taken the last shot in Game 6 against Boston? What if — stop me if you’ve heard this one — they’d drafted Chris Paul? Today we have a new one. What if the Hawks had closed out the Indiana Pacers in six games? Would they be sitting where the Pacers are — one game from the Eastern Conference finals? The Atlanta Hawks have never won two playoff series in any year, nor have they ever reached the Eastern finals.(They did reach the conference finals in 1969 and 1970, when they were based in the West, but it took only one series win to get there. They lost in five games to the Lakers in 1969 and were swept in 1970. Game 1 of the latter series, played in Alexander Memorial Coliseum, remains a sore point in Hawks history. The Lakers of West, Baylor and Wilt shot 60 free throws to the Hawks’ 32. The Lakers won 119-115.) The latest band of Hawks led the top-seeded Pacers by five points with three minutes remaining in Game 6 at Philips Arena. Had they won that night — or two nights later in Indianapolis, where they were routed — they’d have faced fifth-seeded Washington in Round 2.

  • The Rage Page Volume IX Issue IX the Official Newsletter of the Maize Rage 8 January 2008
    The Rage Page Volume IX Issue IX The Official Newsletter of the Maize Rage 8 January 2008 “Everything looks good in practice for the most part. I really don’t know what the problem is. We just have to make shots in the game.” … Freshman guard Manny Harris Not even Manny Harris can say exactly what the problem has been so far with this team. All we know is that progress is coming slower than many expected. At Purdue on Saturday, the Wolverines hung right with the Boilermakers for most of the first half before Purdue got hot from long-range and built a 14-point halftime lead. But Michigan battled back and went on a run of their own, cutting the deficit to just two in the second half before falling short, 65-58. Indiana had a tough time with a hot-shooting Iowa team in their Big Ten opener, squeaking by, 79-76. If Michigan shoots the ball like Manny says they’ve been doing in practice, the upset is not out of reach. Here is the projected starting lineup for the #11 Indiana Hoosiers (12-1, 1-0 Big Ten): 1 Armon Bassett 6’1” G Shot 1-for-9 in IU’s loss at Crisler last year; claims he’s Sebastian Telfair’s “biggest fan,” and says IU is “probably not right now” a title contender 23 Eric Gordon 6’4” G ESPN reported that he played Michael Jordan’s son in Space Jam, but actually it was just an actor of the same name (not Kirk Herbstreit’s fault this time) 13 Jamarcus Ellis 6’5” G Nicknames include “Tom Tom” and “Tone Tone;” remains tied at the hip to junior DeAndre Thomas (#2), his high school, JuCo, and college teammate 30 Mike White* 6’6” F Planned to redshirt this year (despite being a senior!), reversed course in Nov.

  • Lebron James Worries About 2012 Olympics?
    PRLog - Global Press Release Distribution LeBron James worries about 2012 Olympics? Lebron James may worry about the upcoming 2012 olmpics Aug. 20, 2010 - PRLog -- When the United States tips off Sunday in an exhibition against France at the Madison Square Garden, Dwyane Wade, LeBron James and Chris Bosh are little more than interested spectators, with the ability to compete in this summer, circumventing the national team. It is a decision that could swing for years, perhaps leaving the entire U.S. program on the sidelines at the 2012 Olympic Games in London. Far-fetched? Maybe. But it is a horror scenario that looms. Click here to break sports news Text Alerts Only the winners of the 25th August-Sept. 8 World Championships in Turkey receives an automatic 2012 Olympic berth. So if this watered-down U.S. entry, one that the Miami Heat's Wade, James and Bosh, among others missing in one of his co-Round should stumble Games - mean in the round of 16, quarterfinals, semifinals or finals - it would that again next summer's Tournament of the Americas in Argentina, to qualify a route Prime U.S. stars certainly prefer to avoid. But next summer, the chances for success may even be further diluted, with Team USA not be completely consistent with the second stage of NBA stars, as is this year, but even with no NBA stars. In 1998, in the midst of an NBA lockout, USA Basketball had NBA talent to give the World Cup. The result, of a motley team of U.S. professionals overseas, minor leaguers and colleagues, was a bronze medal.
