NYPD Officers School Bronx Teens on Basketball Court

By Trevor Kapp | May 29, 2015 9:55am

A pair of uniformed NYPD officers gave a group of Bronx teens a lesson in basketball recently when they took to the court in The Bronx.

 
 

In a video posted on Facebook and first reported by Bleacher Report, an officer makes a difficult step-back jump shot, then high-fives the group as they run around the court in a frenzy.

The other officer then shows off his dribbling skills, going in-and-out and through the legs, before knocking down a contested shot.

“You just don’t see this [in] society no more the cops cooked us,” posted Jay Todman, who uploaded the video.

“Glad they took the time out there [sic] day to play with us very good experience,” added Christian Sepulveda, who’s also tagged in the video.

The video has received more than 3.5 million views.
