Sixth Man of the Day: Bruce Manley
Bruce Manley is a twenty five year-old New Jersey suburbanite who also happens to be a uniquely talented hardwood whiz. Having injured his shoulder when he was young, Bruce lost the ability to throw an overhand pass. But the kid didn’t quit. Instead, he developed a preternatural ability for behind-the-back passes and other ball-handling tricks unlike anything we’ve ever seen.
But we weren’t the only ones who were impressed: none other than the new Cleveland Cavaliers’ center Shaquille O’Neal saw Manley’s jaw-dropping videos via his twitter feed, and he challenged Manley to a game of H.O.R.S.E . The winner gets $1,000, and if we’re lucky, the Big Aristotle may just be on the receiving end of some ridiculous alley-oops as an added bonus.
Thanks to our homeboy Don @ With Malice for this story, who continues to do great work from halfway around the globe.
