HE DYCKMAN BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT, held at Monsignor Kett
Playground in Upper Manhattan, was started in 1990 as a
positive community event that would give local players a summer
showcase. This year marked the 30th annual edition and, safe to say,
mission accomplished. Crowds for games can swell to 2,500 and often
include basketball royalty. This year, for instance, new Brooklyn Net
Kyrie Irving dropped by to take in the action. SI photographer Erick W.
Rasco also stopped by for a quintessential look at summer in the city.
