my fascination with Street B because
I've seen some of these Legends of the
game do some incredible things on the
basketball court bouncing off people's
heads putting through people's legs I
was like what this is the game that I
want to
play
the first move I Learned was how to spin
a basketball on my
finger then I started working on my own
moves my own Street Bard moves I started
naming these
[Music]
moves the Ceno con is probably my
favorite iconic basketball
[Music]
move the wrap around
back through the friend his
legs oh
no that was sick and that's what I pride
my career on is coming up with some
insane street ball moves that's never
been seen before okay Mr on the right
now I've been doing this for 12 years
it's something that I just love doing I
love being creative and coming up with
new tricks and skills to show the
world
my second name is Connors so people
started saying oh you got ConEd you got
conned and kind of the con man kind of
then sort of came in after that as I was
embarrassing people and uh they were
thinking the ball is somewhere but
really it wasn't it was somewhere else
so that's how I got my
name so i' say the proudest moment of my
career so far is holding 14 basketball
World
Records it's just something I love doing
I love being part of them practicing to
break a world record and sort of setting
yourself a goal and then achieving that
goal and uh hopefully I can continue to
break more as my career goes
[Music]
on so something close to my heart is
being part of sporting Champions which
is a great UK scheme to get kids off the
streets and playing sport enjoying sport
being healthy and having an active
lifestyle you know going in and showing
youngsters and the youth some really
cool basketball moves and tricks and
having fun and making people smile and
get them interested in the game that I
love so much is really important to me
and I love being part of it I'm very
proud to be part of
