(La Joya, Texas)-In more games, the High School Sports Magazine’s No.1 ranked McAllen Bulldogs defeated TMI Episcopal Academy from San Antonio 64-56, coached by three-time NBA World Champion, Bruce Bowen of the the San Antonio Spurs. “This is amazing,” said McAllen HS head coach Ryan Flores. “It’s an honor to play against his team.”

Bowen played with the San Antonio Spurs from 2001-2009 and won three NBA titles with teammates Manu Ginobili, Tim Duncan, and Tony Parker. His No.12 jersey was retired by the Spurs. “I am here to give back to these high school players,” says the 12-year NBA Veteran, Bowen. “Coaching these players is rewarding and if I can help these players make a difference in life, then that’s what I’m trying to accomplish.” TMI hired Bowen in 2019.

The 32-team tournament will continue on Saturday at 8:00 a.m. with the championship games being played at La Joya HS beginning at 3:00p.m. (HSSMImages/David A. Amador)
