A word from Antron: “I believe that I can be an asset to any team because of my passion to excel and play the game of basketball. I am open to learn and to improve for the sake of my team and myself. I get along with others well and I am a team player. Even though I am considered small, I am not very easily intimidated, and can be a very strong mental player.”

Pippen Leads Heat to WBA Championship

Antron Pippen, the starting guard for the Upstate Heat, has led his team to another WBA Championship. The Final game was played against the Rome Gladators, 107-92. The Heat was seated as the number one ranked team in the WBA league.

In the semi-finls, the Upstate Heat eliminated the number four ranked Atlanta Magic. The Rome Gladiators eliminated the Conyers Court Kings. This led to a heated battle for the 2013 Championship between the Upstate Heat and the Rome Gladiators.

Pippen’s post game statement was as such,”I thank God, my teammates, and Coach Daniel for a great season. We worked hard to make it happen. We had great assistance from the team GM (Horace Alexander), the team owner (Alex Garrick), and Ms Galloway in the front office. Many thanks to all of our fans and all others who contributed to this moment. It feels great!”

The Heat’s fans were ecstatic and quite happy to bring the Championship back to South Carolina. One fan stated, “We are so excited! Love watching the Heat play. My favorite part was when Pippen got the steal and went down and did a monster slam. Boy, that was exciting! The fans went wild”

Pippen and his teammates put up a total of 107 points to claim the title of 2013 Champs. Pippen, the son of former NBA star Scottie Pippen, was signed to the team this year to bring in a more polished offense, better and quicker ball movement and to add some quickness to the defensive end of the court. During the playoffs, Pippen’s personal best was 23 points, 10 assists, 8 rebounds, 4 steals, and a lot of controlled fancy ball handling.
Pippen was crowned as team MVP, while teammate Jeremy Price was honored with the title of WBA’s league MVP.

Congratulations to Antron Pippen and the Upstate Heat!…The new 2013 WBA Champs! Thanks for bringing home the gold!…Back to Back.

Pippen Legacy goes to Upstate Heat

Pippen Legacy goes to Upstate Heat

The Upstate Heat brings Pippen Legacy to the Upstate by signing Antron Pippen

Pippen is a 6-2, 25-year-old point guard/shooting guard who broke into the WBA with the Gwinnett Majic last season and was recruited to play with the Upstate Heat last winter. He averaged 10.8 points and 3.4 rebounds last season. He is able to play more at point guard than shooting guard, and is known as a solid defensive player. The Upstate has several players returning this season and considers the acquisition of Antron Pippen a solid franchise move.

Oh My….Pip’s Wingspan is Wow

Antron is listed as a 6′- 2″ guard. His wingspam is now right at 6′-8″.

Thats right, 6 feet and 8 inches!!!!!!!!!!!!  

He has the wingspan of a small forward.

But he’s a guard.

Awesome!

===========================================================================================

“Wingspan is a valued physical trait because it allows players to compete beyond their actual size in nearly all facets of their game. Even the littlest bit of added length can be an advantage over a counterpart with similar stature and physical traits.

That added wingspan can give you the extra inch to finish at the rim, the ability to swoop in on a passing lane, catch a piece of an opponent’s shot or allow a player to get a shot off over a defender.

Whether it’s a guard or a big man, wingspan can become an outright asset and compliment to a player’s game because of their ability to use this advantage well.”
