Sean Wilson says he mentors the teen who now fighting for his life again.
"He was shot 11 times last year. He's a good kid. He's a college basketball athlete. He's not a thug," Sean Wilson said.
Wilson did not want to identify his friend since police have not made an arrest and haven't identified a motive.
The shooting happened around 9:30 p.m. Sunday near the intersection of North 10 Street and 66th Avenue.
Detectives quickly focused the investigation at the scene on a silver SUV that was riddled with bullet holes.

The three victims were apparently shot near that car.
The 19-year-old was shot in the chest and taken to Einstein Medical Center where he remains in critical condition.
A 21-year-old man was shot in the arms. A 19-year-old was shot in the leg. Both are in stable condition at Einstein.
"I don't know what else to tell you, I feel bad for anyone who comes out here and becomes the victim of a senseless crime," Philadelphia Police Captain Frank Llewellyn said.
Police do not have a motive or a suspect description at this time.

They're hoping the victims or witnesses will give them some insight into what happened and perhaps information that will lead them to the shooter.
