Isaiah Wong, Monsignor Bonner, Combo Guard

Will be moving into top 100 territory on 247 soon after his MVP performance at HG southern jam. 95th ranked composite. Right in our wheelhouse, from Jersey. Definitely a prospect to watch!

That first move at the 10 second mark is pretty cool. Not so good in traffic but cool nonetheless.

Is Wahab #20 in dark jersey in those clips?

Kid appears to be very fluid, and that block was pretty spectacular.

One of my favorite guards that we're after (along with Watts and Gaffney). He's definitely more of a score first guard like Adams was in HS, but with Gilbert in the fold long term, having a scoring guard to pair him with wouldn't be a bad idea.

UAA Stats: 19.25 PPG, 51% FG, 45% 3P (2.75 3PA/G), 82% FT, 2.65 APG, 4.25 RPG, 1.5 SPG, 0.5 BPG

Falls a lot. Injury prone?

Happened to be sitting next to my coworker who is a certified strength and conditioning coach. Asked him and showed the video...

His words are "probably not more than any other athlete." Because he's landing on two feet, unlike, say Derrick Rose, who kept getting injured because of his tendency to land on one foot. Too much pressure on that knee.

He thinks that Wong is probably falling because he looks to have weak hips which impact his balance. Could be a reason for the lower ranking to date.

From a coaches eye: On his layups he's not getting UP enough. He is using his speed to get by people, but not exploding up to finishing enough. That can easily be fixed with some high-level coaching.

Great player. Sign him up.

Wow.. love this kids game! I really like how he's all business and doesn't go crazy after each shot like it's just routine that he just made another spectacular play.. I get that you need energy guys on a team that bring that fire, but there's just something about having a guy like this.. Get him Hurley!

Haven't watched his mixtape yet but if this is the backing music, sign him ASAP!

These joke about recruits names are done. It's like I'm back teaching junior high school. All the jokes that can be made, have been made. That's it.

The Quiet Riot, Rocket, Precious, Kofi would be a top 5 all name/nickname class of all time

It's hard for any Wong to stay upright all the time.

You don't remember what it's like to be a teenager...

I feel like I missed something...

What'd you think about Bouknight? His upside is sooo high imo.

looks seriously underrated. Nice highlights!

Anthony Harris got a Miami offer yesterday. Hopefully Miami is losing steam here, because them and Nova are our biggest competition for Wong right now. This kid is tearing up NBA Top 100 camp.
