Bucko Bonds was born in Southside Jamaica Queens, NY. His parents are Samson & Sasha Bonds. He had 1 older sibling named Sensei Bonds who was an All American SS in HS and was committed to play ball for Syracuse University. During the night of his senior prom, Sensei tried to break up a fight at an after party and while doing so was tragically shot and killed. His murder made national headlines across the country. Bucko was just in elementary school at the time and was devastated along with his entire family over the loss of his beloved older brother. Bucko promised his parents that he would work even harder at becoming the best football player he could be so he could fulfill his brothers dream of becoming a future pro bowler & hall of famer in the NFL one day. Bucko began training with his Pops Samson every morning at 5am before school daily. When HS came around Bucko became an even bigger star on the field than his brother was. A two time All American in Football & Track & Field. Bucko Bonds is ready to start HB as a true freshman and wants to put a program on his back so he can BALL OUT!!!
