Kenyon Martin was raised and came out of my city, Dallas, Texas from our rivals Bryan Adams HS. I remember that game when Darvin Ham broke the backboard, that was against Allen Iverson & Georgetown Hoyas in the NCAA Tourney

The great stars were from my town. Lauryn Hill, Wyclef, Whitney Houston, Tisha Campbell, 3LW(nobody cares about them though) and I don't know who else. Those are the ones off the top of my head
