Sure Shot
They say a picture’s worth 1,000 words. But you only need a couple to win.
Here at SLAM, we always knew Stephon Marbury was special; as his Starbury affordable-shoe campaign and new talk show, Stars on Stars, proves, Steph is far from your average NBA player. Do you think this young Jazz fan knows all this? And regardless of his motivation, what might these two be discussing? You know the drill: hit us with the caption that best sums up this summit. The winner will be blessed with a dope prize from our vault and their name in Trash Talk next issue.
