[quote=Anonymous]A good number of the Black kids who do well in basketball are noticed playing street ball at a young age and are brought onto AAU teams and the like. Strong basketball players are recruited for college prep teams, to include providing housing or kids, so that they can help a school win a championship or two. The families of the kids see it as an opportunity to get a better education but mainly to be scouted for a college program. The parents of underprivileged kids who end up playing college sports or professional sports are not paying for their kids to play basketball. They might pay for a basketball for the kid to use on the courts but they are not paying for clinics and travel teams and AAU. The parents who are paying for all of that are middle to high income families.[/quote]
