Bow Wow’s Basketball Skills Saved Money For ‘Like Mike’

Kam Williams of The Black World Today recently spoke with Lil’ Bow Wow on his film ‘Like Mike’, where he revealed that he needed no basketball practice to get up for the role. “No, no practicing, because I already knew how to play,” he said. “Ever since I was 3 years-old, I’ve been dribbling a ball and watching Michael Jordan. So, it was kind of easy. In fact, the director [John Schultz] was happy with me for making my shots because that saved Fox a lot of money. He was almost in tears since, otherwise, they’d have to spend fifty grand computerizing the shots to go in.”
