    The thing i admired about Sauce was that he found his lane and was never worried about going to a higher level. Dude was in movies , music videos, and video games. He had the best and 1 career. Hot sauce was my favorite growing up , dude had the whole country tryna dribble like him. He had the biggest influence too in my opinion. Main Event might’ve been a stunted growth player as well. i think he was supposed to be coached by van gundy. If you could ? Main event would be dope.

      Jamal Crawford always reminded me of the modern day HotSauce with a outside shot. He was like the boy nextdoor u always wanted to root for that made it to the League...Both could have played brothers in a urban basketball film where Crawford had the length, bounce too catch alley oosp and handle to be his own stunt double and hotsauce had the tricks and style. Crawford was the best player to never make a Allstar team. But he has crazy street cred tho as a playground and Drew league legend.

      You're Captivated? Captivated by Sauce Not the video. The main question is answered with Nothing but speculation and that didn't even get to the truth because you can't truly answer it without an INTERVIEW!! My kid brother could've made a better vid and I don't even have one. Get it! Proof: Name ONE thing learned from this vid that a Sauce fan DID NOT already know. Eeeeeexactly. These vids ain't free, cause you pay with your time which is more valuable than money so don't settle for less. And yes I'm mad cause I watched this whole vid waiting for Sizzle to answer in his OWN WORDS why he never got to the league. Everything else was speculation from miles away, literally and figuratively. If you wanna know if your girlfriend really loves you, do you ask her brother in-law or do you get the answer straight from her? Sigh.

    He could’ve been a Globtrotter for sure, probably still can be! We (me and my boy Ty Crane from movie Coach Carter) got him in the Pro runs up at UCLA one summer. He didn’t do well and it exposed that he couldn’t shoot as the NBA players just backed off of him daring him to shoot. He looked really uncomfortable and I felt bad for him as he was a real cool dude off the court. He took his talents all the way to Hollywood!! Smart Man!!😎

    Listen I understand the style didn't fit with the nba, but everyone is taking away from a player being able to adapt and adjust. His handle outside of carrying and the travel shit. I think he could've adjusted if given the proper training and coaches. People talk about statue but there were plenty of small guards 5'9 or short that made it so that argument should be dismissed. His jumpshot was slow but there's plenty of unorthodox jumpshots in the league. People underestimate people willing to adapt and adjust. You talking about a guy who life was basketball.

      But when your more famous. It has to be your style 1st right😊

      Do you really think he is the one that invented all those moves?? Streetball didn’t start in the 90’s. And1 started in the 90’s. Earl manigault, Connie Hawkins, peewee Kirkland, etc.

    I remember flying my mom from L.A. to Reno for a concert. It was about 2002 and we went to a casino, and I sat and played Keno and the tv was on a the sports book, and the And1 game was on, and I'd never seen it. That dude was special!
