Troy "ESCALADE" Jackson The Greatest Street Ball Basketball Player Ever

In an era where Streetball was at its peak, Troy Jackson stood out from the rest of the pack -- and I mean that in a quite literal sense. If that name doesn't ring a bell to you, maybe his moniker Escalade can give you nostalgic flashbacks of AND1 highlight mixtapes being showcased at Rucker Park. Escalade defies any law written about the human anatomy -- Having point guard skills is just impossible for a guy his size, he'll definitely be gassed out after running up and down the court, and the "he's just too fat to play ball" rhetoric -- were just some of the usual doubts that his critics instilled on him. Regardless of that, Escalade put his game into another gear, stayed true to who he is, and swerved back to prove his naysayers wrong. Standing at 6-foot-10 and weighing almost 400 pounds, Jackson was a supersized, walking spectacle that wowed the crowd primarily due to his larger-than-life persona and even more so with his impressive guard-like handles and skills. But as soon as he wrapped those sneakers up, he was sadly taken away from us at just the tender age of 35. In this video, we will take a look back at the life of Troy "Escalade" Jackson, one of the foundational pieces that thrust Streetball under the limelight of the mainstream media, and who also provided another perspective on how we view traditional big men.
