SG that attends Putnam Science Academy. UConn has watched him play a few times this season and he was at First Night and the game tonight. The coaching staff just offered him:

I kind of like his game. Athletic but does have a decent looking shot, from a coaches perspective a good combination.

I think we should corner the Ham market. D Ham, Ham D. All of the Ham.

We could have a Hami'Duo... Ham to Ham... too bad we didn't get Bacon (Dwayne).... Is there a Green Eggs out there too?

Wingspan is 6-foot-9.5, which is huge for a SG.

PC have apparently made him their top 2017 target. ESPN have him as the No. 5 SG in the 2017 class.

Lastly, Hamidou Diallo cemented himself as a legit HM guy in 2017 with chance to be recruited by blue bloods. UConn smart to offer now

Shot looks ok, but he brings it down every time and has a very slow release. Can't argue about him being athletic though

I wouldn't take him. He's shooting 100% from the floor. The law of a averages is sure to kick in one of these years.
Makes you wonder where all this mixtape stuff is headed.

I mean will kids one day use the high school's graphics dept. or a professional one. Which may require a video person following him and taping every game. Perhaps hire a musical company for the audio, with a MC doing voice over. Get some professional editing, and then a hiring a marketing exec or company for the hype.

I am also waiting for the day when someone will apply 'photoshop' stuff and get busted. I know it appears facetious, but I really wonder what product we will see in 10 years. Perhaps its required nowadays like a resume. I'm out of touch so I don't know.

I really miss the days of simply just letting your play on the court mean everything. And have the media (even if its local/state) create an authentic 'mixtape'.

And not to get ahead of myself but a class that starts with Tremont Waters, Hamidou Diallo, and Jermaine Samuels sounds pretty nice lol.
