high-flying, hoop-defying b-ballers with a positive message

AMARILLO, TEXAS -- Worth the Wait hosted the high-flying, hoop-defying Harlem Ambassadors; a group of b-ballers with a positive message.

The abstinence education focused organization hosted the event. The Ambassadors played against a group of local educators and staff from the Y.M.C.A.

It was a friendly competition with helping Amarillo's youth at center court.

"With them bringing us in, yeah, we implement drug free, implement college educations, but also anything that has to do with helping our young adults, and abstinence is right up there; that alone can change your life just like drugs and alcohol," said Jesse Whintly, Harlem Ambassadors.

The Harlem Ambassadors travel all across the U.S. performing and speaking about drugs and about going to college.
