Ribet Academy is a Los Angeles-area high school that also happens to be a basketball powerhouse – the Fighting Frogs are currently in the midst of a playoff run and feature multiple, national high-profile players including 6-4 freshman PG Tyler Dorsey and 6-11 sophomore C Idrissa Diallo.
The school’s alumni also apparently have some legit video production skills. Check out these original videos produced by former Ribet student Sam Sulam that were made to promote the program and its ideals.
These clips go beyond just some cool basketball clips and images. MORE >

We were on to something when we introduced the world to Aquille Carr on the cover of Dime #65. Now, he’s a junior, and he’s committed to Seton Hall. But he’s still only 5-6, and recently our friends at HoopMixtape caught him smashing on the break on some poor fool. The best part is our dude ran out onto the court in the middle of the game to give the Crime Stopper dap, and I’m pretty sure this is the same guy who kept turning up on all of Carr’s videos from last year.

In Dime #66, we introduced you to Andrew Wiggins. He’s only a sophomore, and yet we named him one of our top 25 breakout players for this year. From Huntington Prep by way of Canada has been getting LeBron James-like buzz for a minute now, and is considered BY FAR the best player in his class. 6-7 with a 6-11 wingspan, he has pretty much everything you’d want from a cat in terms of skill and athleticism. Check out this highlight tape from our friends at CityLeagueHoopsTV to see for yourself. MORE >

This play is pretty wild. The description on the video says it’s from a game in Vinita, Oakland last month; Jake Bullard of the Vinita Hornets races the length of the floor to catch an incredible alley oop as time expires.
Just as impressive as the sprint, catch and dunk is his teammate’s Grant Hill-like length-of-the-court perfect pass. MORE >
