The popular senior, known as "J-Mac," has autism and had never played in a varsity game before.
The senior went on a tear, draining six 3-pointers to finish with a team-high 20 points.
The crowd stormed the floor and carried him off on their shoulders.
Greece-Athena beat Spencerport 79-43.

  • @JonniDDR Shut the fuck up you douchebag. So what if they left him open, i'm sure you couldn't hit 6 threes wide open. Go fuck yourself you insensitive prick

  • @JonniDDR all u haters need to take a breath and RELAX..... holly crap

  • And remember this coach is the biggest douchebag, he only let the disabled boy play 4 minutes in 4 years. He tries to go around speaking at schools like he is some sort of hero. And shame on the media for exaggerating the J-Mac's disability, he's really not that disabled he is just rude which they call some kind of social disability, that doesn't effect someone's ability in sports.

  • @React24 wow what an angry response, maybe you should go take some medication and calm down. Sorry if pointing out certain facts is difficult for you but this story is a media circus and a lot of bullshit. Believe what you want to believe, I choose to question most of the crap the media tries to force feed the masses.

  • @JonniDDR Listen dumb fuck, Even IF IT WERE FUCKING RIGGED. I would love to see you sink 6 3 pointers in a game within 3 mins with a crowd situation like that.. Your a joke, you preach higher thinking yet something like this appears fake to you? It's called getting in the zone fag and just cuz hes autistic doesn't mean he can't do it. In fact he probably has more of an ability to do it

  • @JonniDDR Another video that JonniDDR has trolled about J-Mac, bashing him. I don't even need to search! I just click on the related links. You're in all of them, saying the same thing over and over again while your channel preaches about your ability to think on a higher level. Proving your ignorance and inability to be open minded one video at a time, eh?

  • Well the problem with this story is that the coach Johnson set the whole thing up to get publicity for himself. The coaches instructed the players to give J-Mac the ball and give him lots of time to shoot and not to defend them. Notice how the camera footage is in fast-forward because they don't want the viewer to see how slow they are moving and how much time J-Mac had to set up each shot.

  • Spencerport Basketball Rules!!

  • J-MACs WOULDENT MAKE A GOOD FRESHMEN TEAM. HE'D GET DUNKED ON BY ANY TEAM IN SECTION 5.

    Note: Spenerport is getting better, slowly but getting better.

  • J MAC - "hot as a pistol"
