After seeing Jr. in the Slam event all I can say is I like him over Cruz and Gayle. See Floyd's self evaluation below.
Gayle was invisible the entire game and Cruz just didn't seem as "engaged" as Diggins, Floyd and Brantley. Floyd looked tough and aggressive and played hard, while Cruz seemed in "Cruz Control", not standing out or doing much until he had three cheap dunks in garbage time.
Two things I like about Jr.:
1. His grammar. Floyd, Jr when asked about any new schools involved said: “Also Coach Diebler from Ohio State
with whom I’ve had a zoom call.”
How many people today would correctly use "whom" as he did in his response?
2. His self evaluation when asked to describe his game: “I’d say I’m a
very versatile player, I can
score the ball from the
outside as well as
at the rim and
through contact. I’m a
very selfless player who likes to
get all my teammates involved and likes to
make the right play instead of forcing up bad shots. I like to
get after it on defense and
pressure ball handlers and
get easy points off steals.”
Sounds like tough, well-rounded, player. Maybe another CV or better? A DH dream recruit.
