Back in the summer of 2006, the final of the Nike Peach Jam saw a monstrous Mean Streets Express AAU squad lock up with Team Final in the championship game.

Not only did the game come down to the wire in overtime, but it also prominently featured three future NBA stars going after each other: Derrick Rose and Eric Gordon on Mean Streets, and Tyreke Evans on Team Final.

‘Reke finished with 22 points, while Gordon led all scorers with 29. D-Rose ended up with 20, but it was his slicing drive past Tyreke in the final seconds of OT that sealed the deal.

Our friends at Hoopmixtape have the footage. Watch it here: MORE >
