Former NBA standout A.C. Green has been teaching kids basketball fundamentals for quite some time.  This past week, he held a leadership and basketball camp for the 30th consecutive year.

The camp was held in Portland, Oregon at Green’s alma mater, Benson High School.  Kids from the ages of 9-16 came to learn from him and an assembled roster of coaches. 

His camp is just an extension of the A.C. Green Youth Foundation.  The charity has a leadership program as well as providing abstinence education and mentoring services. 

Green was known as the Iron Man of the NBA, playing in a record 1,192 consecutive games.  He won three NBA titles, all with the Los Angeles Lakers.

With the Lakers, Green also made an All-Star team in 1990 and the NBA’s All-Defensive Second Team in 1989.  LA originally selected him in the first round of the 1985 draft out of Oregon State.

While revered in Portland, Green is also known as a legend in Corvallis.  He was the Pac-10 Player of the Year in 1984 and his jersey is retired by the Beavers.
