Cheeks game was deadly efficient, his assist to turnover ratio is STELLAR check his basketball-reference page if you didn't see him play. Cheeks ended up getting a scholarship because a friend refused to attend UTEP unless they offered Mo Cheeks a scholarship as well. There were only one or two other cities that could rival New York in terms of guard play (Hoops in general) in those days at the high school level and one was Chicago. Think about it, Isiah Thomas, Doc Rivers, Mo Cheeks and tailing off with Tim Hardaway in the Era I'm talking about. Yes... I know Derrick Rose is from Chicago too.
I remember him and his greatness!
