Mike Melton Flashback:Tyrone Johnson and Sterling Gibbs (Metro Hoops Jr. All Star Camp)


I would like to congratulate Tyrone Johnson and Sterling Gibbs for making the Reebok U All American Camp. The Camp will take place July 6th thru 10th in Philadelphia, PA. Here’s a flashback of both players when I covered them as 6th Graders at the Metro Hoops Jr. All Star Camp.

Tyrone Johnson (Team NJ Elite)- Johnson’s game picked up while watching Gibbs perform. He began to create opportunities to score for himself and teammates. He made a strong run at Gibbs for top guard honors. He will turn out to be a good one in the near future.

Sterling Gibbs Guard (LI Lightning)- Gibbs played like a the top guard in the AllStar Game. He had good body control while penetrating and had his stop and pop jumper falling. If there was a MVP for the game I would have given him the nod.
