Gunnin For That #1 Spot

A new movie is coming out to select cities and if the trailer is any indication, it looks like it will be a great movie. The movie, "Gunnin For That #1 Spot" is a documentary filmed last summer at Rucker Park in New York City. The film follows a bunch of the nation's top prep basketball players as the play at the famed streetball court.
The movie is directed by Adam Yauch, who most of you probably know as MCA from the Beastie Boys. It's Yauch's second feature length film (two years ago he gave 50 concertgoers hand held cameras and they documented a Madison Square Garden concert for a film titled "Awesome! I Fucking Shot That").
Among the players to look for: Michael Beasley (Kansas State), Kevin Love (UCLA), Kyle Singler (Duke), Jerryd Bayless (Arizona), and Tyreke Evens (Memphis--next year).
