In his first season in a recreational league at West 4th, Ryan played one game against former Detroit PistonPhil Sellers and scored 44 points.[1]

Ryan is most well known for his proficient 3-point shooting.[citation needed] According to an article written by Bobbito Garcia about Ryan in Slam Magazine Streetball Special Collector's Issue, Chris Mullin once described Jack as the best shooter he'd ever seen who hadn't played in the NBA.[citation needed] The article also states Peter Vecsey got Ryan a tryout with the New Jersey Nets in 1990, but was the second-to-last man cut, ending Ryan's NBA aspirations. In May 2003 Ryan was named as one of 'Slam Magazines Greatest Playground Ballers of All Time.'[2] Ryan further proved his mastery of the 3-point shot when he won the 2005 City Slam 3-Point Shooting Championships, which aired on ESPN. In a close final, Ryan edged out fellow streetball sharpshooter Deshun 'Father Time' Jackson to take the title.[citation needed]
