With his 19th birthday still more than a month away, Sebastian Telfair called a press conference in downtown New York City to announce a pair of highly publicized decisions.

This was back in May 2004, when Telfair’s popularity was rapidly rising. He was yet to graduate high school, but in basketball circles, he was on his way to becoming a household name.

Already known as one of the best prospects to ever come out of Coney Island, Telfair’s hoops journey would soon be chronicled on a highly acclaimed documentary titled “Through the Fire.”

The film went behind the scenes of his senior season at Lincoln High School, trailing Telfair and his family as he wrestled with the decision to go to college at Louisville or turn pro.
