He Got Game
Ray with Denzel Washington
Ray’s most famous work is on the basketball court, but not just in the NBA, but in the blockbuster film “He Got Game” written and directed by Spike Lee. Ray played the lead role of a high school basketball player confronted with the problems and pressures that a star player faces as they become famous… probably very similar to his own life story.

Reggie has made 2650 3 pointers in his 15 year career with a 40% shooting percentage from downtown. Ray is only about 300 away from breaking Reggie’s record!
