Following hot on the heels of LeBron James, legendary NBA point guard Tracy McGrady will show off his explosive skills in a three-on-three game at the Southorn Stadium in Wan Chai on August 31.

'T-Mac' - the former NBA scoring champion - will be in town from August 30 to September 1 and Young Post readers can have a close-up view of his powerful style.

Tickets for the one-off event are not for sale, and will only be distributed through adidas and the media. Young Post has 10 pairs of tickets to give away (see below).

Florida-born McGrady's nine-day 2006 Asia Tour kicks off on August 24 in Seoul, South Korea. This will be followed by stops in Guangzhou (August 26), Manila (August 28) and finally Hong Kong. He will also attend the opening of adidas' biggest store in Asia, in Tsim Sha Tsui.

At Southorn Stadium, T-Mac will join an exhibition three-on-three game with players from the local Division One team, Eagles. Basketball fans who missed his visit last summer are hoping to see him in action this time.

'I'm really looking forward it - he's so talented and skilful - and his shooting and powerful slam dunks impress me a lot,' said junior player Szeto Wai-kit, a Form Five student at CMA Secondary School. 'I didn't see him in Hong Kong last year, so I'm excited to meet him.'
