We’ve shown you Baltimore. We showed you the game at Boys & Girls High School earlier today. Now check out Brandon Jennings, Derrick Williams, Kemba Walker, Greivis Vasquez and Under Armour balling out at Lincoln High School during the latest stop on their “Are You From Here?” tour. Lincoln’s alumni team included guys like Lance Stephenson and Sebastian Telfair. And while Jennings (39 points) led all scorers, it wasn’t enough as the Lincoln alumni protected their house with a 101-83 win. Read More »
Not all NBA basketball has stopped. We still have Under Armour’s “Are You From Here?” Tour going on with Kemba Walker, Derrick Williams, Greivis Vasquez and Brandon Jennings going city to city and shutting gyms down.

There are few NBA players with as much swag as Brandon Jennings. (And I say this in a good way.) So you can understand how excited I am that his new signature shoe, the Under Armour Micro G Bloodline, drops next week. Inspired by his life story, each of the seven shoes in the collection represents a different stop on his distinct path to the NBA. Check ‘em out: Read More »
While we have much more coverage coming your way from Wednesday night’s exclusive event in New York City, we figured we’d bring you some good news first: Under Armour is going on tour.

Tonight in New York City, our friends at Under Armour held an exclusive event to preview their new campaign, and to see the latest collection of UA Basketball footwear and apparel. And while you’ll hear all about what went down tomorrow, including interviews with Brandon Jennings, Kemba Walker, Derrick Williams, and Greivis Vasquez, we figured we’d give you a sneak peek of their new commercial spot for those of you that couldn’t make it.
Baltimore’s Aquille Carr, the country’s most dynamic and exciting high school player, continues to burnish his growing legend while fighting crime in his spare time.
His YouTube mixtape highlights, with well over three million collective hits and counting, make you seriously wonder if your eyes have the capacity to lie.
