Tech on the other hand, still lives in a run-down Detroit neighborhood where he has to help his mother pay for groceries and pay the bills.Ĭruise tells Tech that he has two tickets to his college's orientation in California and invites Tech. Although he is a skilled player, Cruise wishes to use his scholarship to become a medical doctor. His mother has died and he has moved from a 7 Mile neighborhood in north Detroit to the prestigious Palmer Woods neighborhood to live with his grandmother. Cruise is a naturally talented basketball player who receives an athletic scholarship to UCLA. Although they are best friends, Tech and Cruise live in completely different environments. Before the game starts, Tech calls his friend Noah Cruise and convinces Cruise to participate in the game. Tech is the frontman of his streetball team (Enemy of the State) and he is determined to take down rival Jewelz and his team "Platinum".
