Joey

  • Position : Small Forward / Age : 19
  • A careless nomad who digs for surf and basketball. Originally landed on South California for shiny sand beach and good waves, he finds himself in court majority of his time. He can be a push over and doesn’t really have an opinion but when in court, he loves it fair and square. Very easy to be pleased as long as he does what he likes and have a good laugh with his mates.

Big Dog

  • Position : Center / Age : 29
  • Coming from a crime filled ghetto, he was dubbed Big Dog from a deep alleyway somewhere in Chicago. Struggling to save himself from his unlawful hood, he found basketball. Ever since, Big dog has been resorting to basketball to help his homies come clean and more and more followed his suit. He may look frightening but once you get to know him, he is just a caring giant.

Kim

  • Position : Shooting Guard / Age : 21
  • 2nd generation Korean American with her obvious Asian look, but she is a typical A town girl. Growing up enjoying whatever LA offers, glaring sun, beautiful sandy beach and trendy boutique shops, she has her unique charm that stands out even in a court. She is an ever-optimistic cheerleader type, and seeks to boost her teammates’ morale whenever possible.

Cindy

  • Position : Point Guard / Age : 19
  • Raised in a quiet suburb of Westchester County, north of New York City, Cindy wants to see herself as a cold city girl and tries her best to look tough with her too-cool-for-school attitude. It takes guts to get to know her true self as she doesn’t really open up. Cindy is a good kid though.

LuLu

  • Position : Power Forward / Age : 26
  • Lulu is down to earth, inviting character like you’ve all had imagined with her big smile. She doesn’t keep anything to herself and her overcharged persona easily takes over on and off court. Raised in a military family, she has never settled in one place apart from Texas, which explains a hint of her southern accent, her love for greasy American food and extra-friendly demeanor.

Murdock

  • Position : Power Forward / Age : 27
  • Fresh out of London, England, Murdock is somewhat straightforward and obnoxious with his nonstop banter. If you thought of a nice and gentle English man, this mate is definitely an exception. He likes having ‘man dem’ around wherever he goes and of course a pint of Guinness.

Carolina

  • Position : Shooting Guard / Age : 25
  • Tomboy growing up in Mexico with three older brothers. Carolina learned to be tough from feisty brothers and is not afraid to stand up on her own. Even with 12 years spent in America, she still speaks with heavy Hispanic accent. This tough minded always lets her voice heard and doesn’t care how others think of her.

Luther

  • Position : Center / Age : 26
  • Luisiana born rapper and song writer with many other titles like social activist and trauma counselor, while his presence may be aggressive and grumpy. Luther is well-known on media for his dark view on Politics and Society. He was a victim of Hurricane Katrina as a kid and the horrible experience permanently changed his outlook on the world. When he needs to blow off some steam, he does it in the basketball court, and heaven helps anyone who gets in his way!

Amanda

  • Position : Small Forward / Age : 23
  • Coming from free minded Berkeley area near San Francisco, Amanda looks like she just popped out from 70s music video with her lavishing, perfectly made reggae braids. As a professionally trained dancer, she has done some work here and there, but is still waiting for her big break. In the meantime, Amanda has found that there is no better way than being in a court.

William

  • Position : Small Foward / Age : 25
  • Name whatever, this fast talking guy can sell it. A true born salesman, William sells cars, appliances and electronics. This witty, talkative character grew up in luxury thanks to his family in lucrative film industry. But rather than leeching off his parents, William is determined to make his own path to the world and earn his fortune.

Pedro

  • Position : Point Guard / Age : 23
  • As a line cook working in a fast food chain, Taqueria with his height well under six feet, Pedro doesn’t look like a rising streetball star. But his persona completely changes in basketball court. This guy normally stays cool, although he does have a fit of anger with his job being in a fast phasing kitchen. Don’t you worry, though. His mood swing is as fast as the wind blows.

Fred

  • Position : Shooting Guard / Age : 24
  • Coming from a gangland, Detroit east side, ‘Fast’ Fred is happy to have recently relocated to the warm weather and excitement of the LA area. With a cheery outlook and a friendly smile, Fred is liked by nearly everyone, even by many of his opponents. He does his side job as a DJ in a local club and it always packs with clubbers to listen to his mix, but he prefers to show his skills in a court.

Clarke

  • Position : Power Forward / Age : 19
  • If Clarke were in a movie, he would be a stereotype bully who picks up on small ones. He is a big, bulky, arrogant, intense and a classic muscle man. With almost no sense of humor, Clarke thinks basketball is his life as he wants to shine not only on traditional courts, but on the street courts as well. He doesn’t attract many friends, though his teammates do appreciate his undeniable skills and dedication.

Lee

  • Position : Center / Age : 27
  • A gentle giant, Lee is a PhD student who uses streetball to escape from his crushing academic workload. Born in China and adopted by American parents when he was 5, Lee considers himself very fortunate and is proud to be an American citizen. He is chill enough to have a laugh about how tall he is compared to ‘his people’. Lee can take it all in big strides, needless to say with his dominating presence as well.

Helena

  • Position : Point Guard / Age : 24
  • A skater girl with charm to spare, Helena always breaks assumptions others tend to make about her. It is not common to find a blonde white chick, small sized of her age 24 who is obsessed with playing basketball. If you think she is the type who would all doll up and wait for you to open the door, you are wrong. Two of her brothers are in pro basketball league and she is more than half as good.

Professor

  • Position : Point Guard / Age : ?
  • Grayson THE PROFESSOR Boucher is the true icon and perhaps the most celebrated streetball player ever. Born in Keizer, Oregon, The Professor grew up in a household that supports basketball, which allowed him to spend 4-8 hours a day to practice his skills. THE PROFESSOR has been defending his title as world’s best streetball players since 2003 and has toured the world playing with the Ball up all stars. The “Professor” gained his name from the legendary streetball emcee Duke Tango for “Schooling” people on the court as the underdog.

Christa

  • Position : Center / Age : 32
  • Christa was a drill sergeant in the German military who had a passion for basketball. After being discharged from the army, Christa made her way to America. The first thing she did after arriving was heading to FOX Court. Just in time, there was a job opening for security guard at FOX Court due to some collision between players on the court.
