The Fil-Am Lakers guard teaches Filipino youth the fundamentals of shooting and dribbling

MANILA, Philippines – As part of their visit to the Philippines for NBA Cares, Los Angeles Lakers Fil-Am guard Jordan Clarkson along with Utah Jazz guard Trey Burke and former NBA Champion Horace Grant visited the Maginoo Street covered basketball court in Tondo, Manila to tutor kids on basketball fundamentals.

The trio each taught kids from the Project Pearls program the basics of proper dribbling and shooting skills. Later on, Clarkson and Burke both threw down slam dunks, much to the delight of those in attendance. 

Clarkson, whose mother Annette’s family has roots in Pampanga, was recently selected to the NBA All-Rookie First Team.
