How does it feel to represent k1x in Hong Kong: I am excited to represent a brand that is made by ballers for
ballers and is not afraid to be innovative and try new things in the basketball market. I'm also proud to be involved with a product that not only looks good but is also about high quality performance.
We are proud to have chosen Jim as one of our Hong Kong , k1x-nation of hoop ambassadors as he really does define k1x's main claims of:
You can't teach heart
Play hard-don't embarrass our products
Born and bred in Hong Kong , Jim is a one-man offensive juggernaut, but don't get it twisted, he by no means is a one-sided player, this boy plays hard defense as well.
Jim played high school basketball in Hong Kong where he led Island School to a second place finish in the A-Grade Division 1 (Varsity) Inter-Schools Basketball League in the 1997-98 season. He also played in the British Universities Basketball League (BUSA) leading his team in scoring every year. He has also attended the famed 'Five-Star' basketball camp in Pittsburgh , PA and won the MVP at the 'Eurocamp' basketball camp in 1999, run by the former England basketball coach, Dr. Laszlo Nemeth .
He is our version of Jason Kidd, in the respect that if you do not know what to do, get the ball to Jim as he will always make the correct play. This humble stud is so smooth on the courts, that he can hurt you in so many ways-in your face Js from in and out all day everyday, embarrass you with one of his many post up moves, or simply making you look silly by crossing you over and taking it to the rack and finishing with style and grace, or a nasty jam, either one is fine by him. Jim loves basketball and we are proud to have him as our k1x guy.
