With the 2014 NBA All-Star Game taking place in New Orleans over the weekend, there were tons of festivities that took place in the Big Easy.
Tulane University’s gym was rocking on Sunday morning with New Orleans Pelicans swingman Tyreke Evans hosting his basketball ProCamps along with the Taco Bell Foundation for Teens and ProCamps. Over 100 kids participated in the camp that included teens that were part of the NBA’s Taco Bell Skills Challenge on Saturday.
Dribble drills, shooting clinics and fun were the focal points for the All Star game camp.
“I had a lot of fun with the kids today,” Tyreke Evans told The Source. “Thank you to ProCamps and Taco Bell Foundation for Teens for helping put this on during All-Star weekend.”
Taco Bell Foundation for Teens provides scholarships to kids attending the camp. They offer core programs that motivate teens to stay in school and provide job training to help them identify career opportunities and interests
“This was a great activation being able to partner with Taco Bell Foundation for Teens and Tyreke Evans during basketball’s biggest weekend,” said ProCamps’ President Eric Liebler. “We had over 100 kids be able to spend time with Tyreke and learn the fundamentals of basketball.”
Since 1992, the Taco Bell Foundation for Teens has inspired and enabled teens to graduate high school and reach their full potential through its programs, partnerships, and direct financial assistance.
