Hey AND Juans, we’re sharing some more images on what went down in Brasil last weekend during the 2012 Red Bull King Of The Rock (KOTR) tournament which was held for the first time in their country.  As we have posted in our June 18 blog article, AND1 Brasil made the jerseys/game shorts that were used for the tournament (click HERE for the previous post).


Again, we thank AND1 USA for emailing us these exclusive images from last weekend’s event.  As relayed in GloboEsporte.com, a 22-year old baller named Jose Maria Borges Silva aka “Tikim” won against 63 other players in Uberlandia to be the 1st of 4 Brazilian representatives who will play for the ultimate prize, to represent Brasil in Alcatraz (United States).  Other qualifying rounds will be held in Minas Gerais, Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.
