(BALTIMORE – September 8, 2026) – Having completed about a dozen full-length interviews for the Legends of Baltimore series—and given a series of television and podcast interviews—one observation I’ve made is how much pride Baltimoreans take in their high schools. As a matter of fact, one of the first questions we ask is: “What school did you go to?” From that point forward, a true Baltimorean has already started calculating who you are, what side of town you come from, and who you might know.

(BALTIMORE – September 7, 2026) – East Baltimore has its annual Legends Tournament at the Dome. A few weeks later, West Baltimore closes out the summer with the Labor Day cookout at Cloverdale. For me, you could not ask for a better combination. Down on the basketball court, young people compete, develop their skills, and begin building their own reputations. They are the legends to be.

These are men whose…

Philadelphia has cheesesteaks. Baltimore has crab cakes loaded with jumbo lump, lightly breaded, with a dash of yellow mustard and two crackers on the side. Mmph. Watch your mouf! I can smell a skillet with about five…

(BALTIMORE – September 4, 2026) – Kaii Gilliam doesn’t fit the mold of the typical Baltimore basketball legend piece — he’s only 27, still playing, still climbing. But his path from a sixth-grader who landed in Baltimore from the Bronx to a professional point guard hoisting a championship trophy in Colombia is exactly the kind of story that belongs alongside the city’s playground legends. Finding Baltimore Gilliam wasn’t born here. He was raised in the Bronx before his family moved to Baltimore when he was in sixth grade. He attended Woodlawn Middle School — now known as Southwest Academy —…
