*************************************
The Karlton Hines Story
Director: Troy Reed, 55 minutes, 2006

He was torn between two worlds, the love of the game and the love of the streets.

Ever since anyone in his hood could remember, Karlton "Dunkin'" Hines was destined for basketball stardom. Top Division coaches swarmed the projects, vying for his attention. But shortly before graduation, with a scholarship at hand, Hines abruptly quit basketball to answer the call of the street. With the same talent and discipline he exhibited on the court, Hines became the flashiest, richest drug dealer in mid-90s New York, a dangerous role in a cutthroat game that eventually cost him his life.
