PLYMOUTH (WBZNewsRadio) - Archbishop Williams High Junior Josh Campbell is earning himself a slam-dunk reputation, after a video of his basketball skills had gone viral on social media.
"I had a button down and tie on, khakis, a belt, and Sperrys." Campbell told WBZ's Chris Fama. The teen says he was just messing around and didn't realize anyone was recording during the dunk session.
More than a million people have now seen the teenager in a viral video on the Ball is Life instagram account. The video includes three dunks all while done wearing his school uniform.
"I definitely see it as a way to make a brighter future with college and maybe get a scholarship." Campbell said.
Campbell isn't just a viral sensation, he's also part of a winning team. The Bishops finished 14-8 and won their first state tournament game since 2015, and the most wins the team has had in a decade.
