@broaddusmarines I wouldn't deny your list, but I would add a name. I was in the gym the night Shawn Kemp and Concord played against another NBA star in the making, also in his junior year. His name was Rick Fox. By the way, Shawn set the current McCuen Gym (Concord's home floor) scoring record that night putting in 49 points, while Fox "only" had 26. One more name I just thought of was Scott Skiles who also came out in the 80's.

That's my school :D ( concord )

This was when he was in high school: he only had eleven kids of his own then...

he won the game by himself haha

I'm also from Indiana and graduated the same year as Kemp did (1988). Sean Kemp was one of the best HS players to come out of Indiana in the 1980s (along with James Blackmon and Jay Edwards, IMO), but he only cared about making highlight reels. This Muncie team ran Kemp's Elkhart off the court, btw. Kemp's HS career was like his NBA career. You did a lot of "ooohs and aaahs", but in the back of your mind, you were kinda' disappointed.

why does the start of the video say 1989, but the headline say 1988?

Ahh VCR, shit quality but theres an honesty to it aha

Kentucky's loss = Seattle's gain. Big ups to the NCAA, for once.

Hey, that's cool and all, but, no one's clicking on this clip to see highlights of Chandler Thompson ,though.
Thank you for your comments. I will upload new HQ video mix from this game soon. I will try to input some more Chandler Thompson highlights.

Neneh Cherry's "Bufallo stance". I've picked this song because it excatly describes the vibe which was on the air at that time...
