As I watched the video in the link about MJ vs. OJ (found here: http://blacksportsonline.com/home/2013/10/michael-jordan-really-taught-o-j-mayo-a-lesson-at-jordan-camp-video/), I spied Kyle Singler at the the 1:33 mark, getting up off the floor as MJ walks to the sideline. Singler was in the same high school class as Mayo I believe, which gives me further confidence that's him.

I'm sure there are other players we would recognize in the video if I studied it more. Anyone else recognize anyone else?

Good catch! I missed his appearance at the 1:33 mark when I watched it the first time, but I did see him at the :37 mark. The red head kid playing hard and showing off his help-side defense, in a pickup game, gave it away. Kyle always played at full speed, which was the thing I always admired most about him.

Oh its definitely Singler. You can hear the announcer say "Kyle" at 1:26 right before it pans to him (meaning he was calling Kyle in for the next game). He also falls down around :40 when jordan gets a reverse layup.

Also, that means OJ wasn't the only high schooler at the camp despite his claim that he was. Just pumping himself up to be more than he is...shocking

I wish that had been the one on one video as promised by the website.

MJ probably had the cameras turned off - didn't want to ruin the kid's NBA career...
