Michael Avery

LOL.. there is a short thread about this in the Hangout.

He has the potential to be very good. He is playing against 15 year olds and doing very well.

There isn't a whole lot of information out there on him yet (since until he committed to UK no one had ever heard of him - though that wouldn't be unusual since he's only 13/14?)

Here's what little about him that is out there.

Well, just think about it...


He's a 6'4 8th grader. That speaks for itself.

 

Dang if he continues to grow, at high school hes going to be 7

 

he's playing in the Gilbert Arena's tournament thing this weekend in Phoenix. so now that everyone knows he's committed we will probably hear all about how he does. and that its crazy to sign a kid that young.. etc etc.

He better not be the next tall white stiff

 

If he was he would have committed to Duke not UK

 

Awww man.. you're killing me here.

How he was drafted I will never understand.

BUT.. in our defense.. he was a transfer!!
