Ty Crane, the "next Lebron James" played for their in state rival. And he was a center/power forward. Therefore, Ty Crane must be based on another player. Unless the Ty Crane character is just totally made up, which is entirely possible.

I haven't watched it either. But I'm just saying, Wayne Oliver is not the guy the thread is asking about.
And as I said, Ty Crane may be based on no real player that Coach Carter's team played against.

Fictional character "Ty Crane" in Coach Carter is representative of Chandler

The Next LeBron thing is probably a blooper by the people that made the movie.

For some reason coming out of highschool all the scouts said Tyson Chandler had an NBA ready jumpshot and his game was most comparable to Kevin Garnett's.
So for sure Ty Crane is Tyson Chandler? Nice, wonder how he feels about that, hes shown in pretty good light actually, congratulating Coach Carters team at the end for playing so well

Re: Who is the stud player in Coach Carter based on?
but would a highschool team from Richmond play a highschool team from Compton? They played once preseason and then once in the state tournament
yes because compton and richmond are both in the state of california. that's why they would play in the state tourney.
preseason is just that, teams match up against whoever they feel like playing. some play more than others some travel some don't

in the movie Ty Crane went to a rich private prep school called St Francis. I better check out which HS Tyson went to.
wtf in real life Tyson went to Dominguez? That's not rich prep school at all its the opposite. Hmm guess its just movie taking liberties, making Coach Carters ghetto richmond match up against rich preppy Ty Crane's St Francis, in reality it was ghetto dominguez vs ghetto richmond, guess that isnt as exciting

Tyson Chandler. By the way the actor who played Texas/Junior Battle played NCAA Division II or III Basketball.
