JELLY FAM: WELCOME TO THE NEW HOOPS PHENOMENON

New York City's No. 1 high school point guard Isaiah Washington and his crew are breathing life back into youth basketball culture. Jelly, New York City's freshest basketball phenomenon. It's a singular spectacle reenergizing the city's hoops scene in ways few have ever seen before. It began with a flashy yet subtly difficult move, a reincarnation of a basketball classic from a bygone era. Washington, the co-creator of this thriving youth hoops movement known as the Jelly Fam, just happens to be the No. 1 point guard and top overall basketball prospect in NYC and the floor general of immense talent at St. Raymond High School for Boys in the Bronx."The New York City point guard is flashy, plays with a lot of heart, and I represent that with pride," Washington says. "The first steps I ever took were trying to get a hold of a basketball. I grew up going to the park every day to play against the best players out there because I didn't want anybody to be better than me."
