    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">All over the Bureau of Prisons (BOP), dudes claim they got game. In reality, there?s only a select few like that. Cats will pump up their homeboys to make it seem like they are the truth, but we only give props to the best. And lately, we've been hearing whispers coming out of the Midwest about a kid that combines the best attributes of Mike Bibby and Allen Iverson.

    This kid has been in the system for a while ? doing his thing at FCI Milan, FCI McKean and FCI Pekin. His basketball exploits are legendary at those three joints. As dudes have transferred around, this cat's hype has grown. Since real recognizes real, HoopsHype.com decided to investigate and bring you the story of Larry Walker Jr., a tough small guard who hails from Saginaw, Michigan.

    Larry is 35 years old and six-feet tall. 185 lbs. and well built.

    "I have been incarcerated for 14 years," he says. "After coming into the system in 1991, when I was 21 years old. I started playing ball when I was 10 years old. I played at Webster Elementary School and Junior High. I played at Saginaw High and then went on to AAU teams and Delta Junior College in Saginaw."</div>

    In reality there are tons and tons of players who are in situations like this or similar to this... it's sad really.

    There is so much non exploited talent that is rotting because of bad decisions, injuries, or just no exposure. There are worse stories... you really gotta feel for people like this.
