LEON BERNARD

Bad-Boy Bernard is one of the most recognisable faces within the UK streetball community.

After exploding onto the scene at the 2000 Rough and Ready dunk contest, Leon went on to be named "National Slam Dunk Champion" a year later (after busting a chicken-wing jam).

Leon also leaped into the Guiness Book of Records when he dunked an 11' 1" basket - a UK record - back in 2002.

As well as bringing some quite silly springs, Leon also adds energy and excitement to games. A natural entertainer, "U.P.S." always knows how to get the crowd hyped.

This summer, Leon retained his dunk contest title at Street All-Stars - showing all young pretenders that there's still life in the old legs yet!
