With the weather in the upper 90′ies, crowds galore and the best players in the city, there was no choice but to put on a spectacular showcase for the fans.

K1X All-Stars were loaded with Darren Phillip, Rick Apodaca, Special EFX, Cory Underwood, A-Money, Kason Mims, Jiggy Josh Watkins, Panama Kirkland and Stixx Williams, while the HITS All-Stars included Antwan Dobie, Kenny Satterfield, Smush Parker and Justin Burrell.

K1X All-Stars, led by Hoops in the Sun Hall of Famer Darren “Primal Fear” Phillip, defeated the HITS All-Stars 110-106. The Fear led the way with 25 points and 12 rebounds, taking home All-Star Game MVP honors for the second time in his career. HITS All-Stars started off strong in the first quarter, going up 30-20, with eventually leading 51-44 at the half. (Watch the attached clip to see Coach Bernard Bowen’s flaming half time speach!) DP took over in the third, as he scored 16 points in the quarter for the K1X All-Stars.

HITS All-Stars began to make their run in the fourth but it was little too late. Missed free throws and fumbled key opportunities cost them the win. K1X All-Stars, with the help of James “Stix” Williams (22 points and 10 rebounds) and the timely shooting of Rick Apodaca closed out the deal at another fantastic HITS mid summer classic.

Big shout to Randy & Joe Cruz for making HITS such a success – K1X is proud to be part of the fam!

“that’s my ‘new york big city of dreams’ tattoo, my man adrian “the sardinian” is the artist. he tatted up the botttom of my left sleeve from my elbow to the wrist and he fixed my new york theme. he brought out the buildings more, added the eye, threw in the american eagle on top, put in the statue of liberty hand with the torch and added his script – the man is great!!!
that was in italy at my house (2007). he’s gonna finish my right arm soon before i go back to ny this summer…you see in the video i thought it was a picture camera cause i had the peace sign up for mad long then i saw this and realised it was a video.”

after winning polish mvp honors in 2006 and leading the italian league in scoring last year, rick is currently on top of the turkish league with his besiktas istanbul squad. but that’s just half the story. rick has gotta be one of the most approachable and coolest ballplayers out there.
yo rick, remember the time you drained 9 threes in a row at the magic show to get a telephone number? remember drinking beers for lunch at tazza d’oro the first time you visited k1x headquarters? remember the time we drove thru puerto rico with a telenovela actress for two full days, looking for photo locations and chilling at the dopest bodega ever? the midnight shoot in the hood? remember why we decided to change you nickname to “open bar” at the complex party in vegas? this list will be continued this summer no doubt, when the strictly business puerto rico editions hit foot lockers in new york and pr. check em out below…

at the bodega…

hmmm …
