    Post the highlights.


    Probably the best in game dunker I've seen outside of Vince Carter.


    He is also 16 years old.

    A few years from now and that's a serious knee injury. Hopefully they talk to him.

    Does he have any other actual skills? Or is he just a dunker?

    He is very athletic.

    Needs to work on handles.

    Jump shot is decent though.

    Is he Josh Smith, or is he Josh Smith?

    Reminds me of a young J Smoove with more potential. The athleticism is there but has to work on those handles and shot. I'm a huge fan of him and Michael Porter!!!

    It is always nice to see how guys develop. His issue is that when he is in the NBA, he will have guys who are close athletically and much more sound fundamentally.

    He is going to be too good in college. Way too athletic.

    Agreed. Hope we develops well, the NBA has shown being athletic only gets you so far and gives so many years.

    He's like a more athletic, less fat Harden :D. Kid already has an NBA ready body, and he's not a senior in HS yet. Crazy to think what he could be if he develops with a year under Coach K or Cal.

    That kid can flipping leap out the gym. He looks kinda lazy though. I guess when you are that physically gifted in HS nothing is much of a challenge.

    "Lazy"? He beat all those "heady" white kids down the floor every time, Klansman.
