The Big Apple has been known for having top point guards for ages. Every youngster that handles the rock wants to be the next Kenny Anderson or Stephon Marbury. The next floor general with these aspirations is Tyler Bourne of Juice All Stars. We hollered at the young Brooklyn baller and here’s our One on One.
One On One

TB: It’s a small achievement for me that I’m grateful for but I want to be known as the best PG in NYC so I must work even harder everyday until then.

TB:Dwayne wade because I like his explosiveness every time he touches the floor and his willingness to take over a game at any given moment.
BS: What is the strongest part of your game?
TB:I would have to say my basketball IQ for my age and the ability to take over a game at crunch time.
BS: What part of your game needs the most work?
