    Cops are still on the hunt for the shooter who opened fire during a basketball tournament in Harlem Wednesday night.

    Five men playing in the Entertainers Basketball Classic at the Holcombe Rucker Park were wounded when an unidentified suspect opened fire when a game ended, police said.

    The victims, whose ages range from 16 to 25, were hospitalized and listed in stable condition, according to the NYPD. Former Knick Nate Robinson was at the park watching the tournament but wasn't around when shots were fired around 11 p.m., police said.

    Three days earlier, a 4-year-old boy was killed in a shooting during a basketball tournament in the Bronx. Rondell Pinkerton, 17, has been charged with murder and weapons possession, and police say they are looking for more suspects.
