GBB Directs 2010 Jordan Skill Academy in Europe

Once again Ganon Baker directed a successful Michael Jordan Skill Academy in Istanbul, Turkey.  We had 40 of the top 15 and 16 year olds from 30 different countries.  They might not have understood English, but they understood Michael Jordan and the energy and passion of Ganon Baker. The players participated in the strength and conditioning workouts of Michael Jordan by Chris Thomas from 100% Hoops out of Indianapolis.  Miles Simon (former Orlando Magic and Arizona University superstar), worked with the kids on 3 on 3 competition, shooting drills, and defense.  Mike Hackman (Nike Basketball), organized the 5 on 5 competition.  Ganon as always worked them out on their offensive and defensive fundamentals.  Click below for details, pictures, and the tour.  Check out our blog on Michael Jordan’s secrets to success.
