So much drama! Love it when the drama ends well!

Remember him as a young ball boy. I like seeing 6'4" next to his name now!

Who's gonna wear the #4 next year??

[Panthers to the Bone]

Tywhon wore #14 his junior year and #3 his senior year of HS. Friedman's graduation opens #3 if he wants it.

Juwan
Tywhon
Spencer
Isaiah
AJ

Thats a lot of guards next year, will be interesting to see how the minutes are distributed...

24/7 released new rankings - AJ jumped up to 71 from 75. Also interesting to note that Haliburton fell to 211 from 143.

And the win. 55-54 over City West. And as one (admittedly, local) reporter said, "Green solidifies himself as best player in state with 36..." (emphasis mine)

Courier article mentions that he hit a couple contested three's down the stretch in a close game, one over a 6'7'' defender. Wish we had video of that!

Apparently AJ and Joe Weiskamp were contacted by LaVar Ball and his new basketball league. Sounds like both turned it down. I have a hard time seeing this league get ANY traction. If it does, it could really hurt big programs in the short term though.

The only kids who'll join that league are guys with...for whatever reason...have no other options.

Anyone with a legit D1 opportunity would be foolish to follow Levar into what will almost surely become a mess. If it does...then where does that leave you?

There's a guy in Twitter tracking it. He has at least 40 names of guys offered, none accepted and very few even considering. Can't blame them. Even if the league was a success (huge stretch) in 2-3 years these kids are gonna be looking for something new and without a college education, or the opportunity for a scholarship. There's no way this league ever comes close to happening imo, I just thought it was interesting that AJ was offered.

Kid has always been a shooter. Haven't seen him play much but would guess he has a pretty good basketball IQ. From the video, jeez he looks small (age-wise). Can't wait to see how he develops physically.

Hoping there is an offer there shortly.

This was a good idea!
