Beastie Boys' Adam Yauch has made a documentary about American high school basketball players and their attempts to make a career in the sport. 'Gunnin' For That No 1 Spot', due to premiere at New York's Tribeca Film Festival on 28 Apr, features players who, since the filming began two years ago, have become big college basketball stars, although frankly their names don't mean anything to me, because I'm British. Heard of Kevin Love or Michael Beasley, anyone?
Yauch says he found it interesting how the young players generated so much media interest. He told the AP: "They have this infrastructure around them, and they are being groomed for stardom. When I was in high school I wasn't getting the quantity of media that these guys are. But it's not necessarily a bad thing".
