FLINT, Michigan -- Basketball players have benefited from Greg Burks’ basketball knowledge for years, but now Flint Powers trusts him to lead its boys varsity hoops program.
Burks was named head coach of Powers’ varsity boys basketball team on Friday, Aug. 15.
It’s safe to say that the 33-year-old knows the game well.
He spent seven seasons playing professionally in Germany before retiring in 2011 and is already a member of the Prairie View A&M Sports Hall of Fame.
For his college career, Burks averaged 17.1 points, 4.2 assists and 3.1 rebounds, led the Southwestern Athletic Conference in scoring the 1999-00 season and was twice named to the First Team All-SWAC squad.
