4* wing from Canada. Plays on the same AAU team as Shittu. Seem to be friends as well based on Twitter interactions.

Hell yes. A lefty with a sweet stroke, handle and size.
There's also a spot for you here in the Fall, Ignas.

 

[Stainmaster]

Out of all of the pieces we've been mentioned with, I think this is the one I'd be the most excited about. He had a huge weekend at the NPSI this past January, beating up on some pretty high-level NEPSAC competition. Getting him to reclass would give us an instant-impact type frosh we haven't seen since Daniel Hamilton.

The whispers I'm hearing are also that playing early is one of the things he values most. If that holds true, we can definitely meet those expectations...

Chillious needs to start living up to the hype. Real this kid in!

 

[WrenchFan69]

Kid oozes offensive talent

 

[Doctor Hoop]

Call me crazy, but I see a little Chris Mullin in his shooting motion.

Countdown in three, two, one ...

Idk our chances, but if we were to land a kid this talented this late would be a miracle from heaven.

 

[KembaStepback]

Sign this kid up. Now. Beast.

 

[CardiacAndre7]

If this kid has any interest in '17 we better be all over him. This is the kid KO and Chillious need to go all out for.

 

[KingAG]

This kid is a more versatile Giffey on offense. A really exciting player

 

[Yankees32123]

Get him.

 

[RipCity]

To avoid unnecessary heartbreak, let's pump the brakes until we hear that there is mutual interest.

Michigan offered last weekend and he's boys with Stauskas. I'd say they have a better chance than we do at this point, not to mention Vandy and Pitt.

Like our great president(LOL) once said, "what do we have to lose?". We've been devastated so much this past calendar yr tha one more heartbreak wont hurt

Ignas had an awesome first weekend of the EYBL last weekend, along with Shittu.
I was hoping the staff noticed since they were watching Shittu. Didn't realize Ingas could re-class. Interesting!

[Kembacity]

I will be flat out shocked if we get this kid, merely due to demographics

He scores, rebounds and passes. Chill, Chill Moore, KO, and Kill!

well if he can re class why not they gave him a 2018 offer. Id be on him right now I'm sure they are thinking of it

 

[Matrim55]

Ollie just followed him, Shittu & Nembhard (5-star 2019 PG), all from Canada.

I will not get my hopes up. I will not get my hopes up. I will not get my hopes up.
Crud. Resistance is futile.

 

[awfuldan]

Isn't Ollie planning a pre-season team trip to Canada this summer? Could be a selling point.. or at least a great recruiting opportunity.

Dribbles, hits fade away sand fights for rebounding position! Please, please, please!

 

[Son of Robert]

Dude scores from anywhere on the floor. Has a nice handle and I'm sure he can post. Looks like a fairly complete game. I like these European type players. Someone said he looks like a more offensively versatile Giffey and I agree. It would be awesome to get this guy.

 

[husky429]

This kid scored 50 against Prolific Prep. That high school team might have been able to beat UConn last year (maybe not... but I'm barely kidding...). They're no joke. Elite team.

No idea what our chances are, but I'll take that firepower at 6'8 any day. Seems a little like Vance Jackson in the skilled but slow 3/4 combo mold, with a nice shot.

 

[CAHUSKY]

His game and physique look like my fellow Reno resident Luke Babbitt (Louisville, Nevada, Trailblazers)
