Sounds like he might be between Marquette and Providence

 

[Phoenixhusky]

Thinking Marquette is the favorite here.

Just a hunch or you have info? I think my preference is Howard at this spot and the reviews on Abraham have been mixed. But if Dan Hurley wants him, I want him.

If you believe in visual foreshadowing.

 

[Phoenixhusky]

His dad played at Marquette and also based on his visit connects.

But then VT is listed first. Or maybe he saved the best for last???
Either way, PeeCee is screwed.

Idk why but I feel like it’s going to be Providence

Kim English has basically offered the entire DMV

From that list of schools, we were just thrown in there for attention grabbing.

He took an OV here recently with his cousin Ngongba.

I don't think the UConn staff just hosts prospects for official visits for the heck of it.

Picked up a prediction for Abraham

 

[kansashusky]

First crystal ball for the good guys.....

 

[kansashusky]

Also I would think that has to be good for Patrick as well.

Awesome, from his quotes in that article it didn't seem like we were the favorite at all.

Paul VI Catholic was stacked last year. Went 31-4 and beat DeMatha, Mater Dei, Patrick School, Roselle Catholic, etc. They are filled with good players. Isaiah Abraham and Patrick Ngongba obviously, then also Darren Harris #59 crystal balls to Duke, and Deshawn Harris-Smith #26 in the class committed to Maryland, and lastly Ben Hammond unranked w/ crystal ball to Rhode Island.

Beat Boogie Fland's team Archbishop Stepinac by 31. In that game Boogie had 16pts on 7-20 shooting with 2rb and 1 ast while Ngongba had 9pts/3rb and Abraham had 2pts.

On the season Isaiah averaged: 7.4ppg, 53% FG, 30% from 3pt, 72% FT, 3rb, 1ast.

Ngongba averaged: 8ppg, 6rpg, 1apg, 63% FG, 69% FT

Don't know anything about him but a 6'7 PF?

We had a 6'7" center last year. It's an upgrade.

“Isaiah Abraham is an explosive wing. He has great measurables with long arms and good positional size. At his core, Abraham is a shot-maker. He has touch, range, and confidence from anywhere on the floor. He is going to have to shore up his footwork and balance, which will help with his shot selection and shot-making. Abraham is able to attack the rim in straight lines and finish well above the rim in transition. He can get to his spots off one and two dribble pull-ups. Abraham has the upside, both physically and athletically, to be a solid team defender; there is a toughness in there, and with his size. Is confident. Abraham’s father, Faisal Abraham, played at Marquette, and his aunt Tajama Abraham Ngongba played at George Washington.” – On3’s Jamie Shaw

Lol he’s 18% from 3 this spring and was 30% in HS last winter. This scouting report can go straight to the trash (the rest is on point to be fair)

Agreed. His shot looks better, but he's an Andre-level shooter from a production standpoint.

[Hey Adrien!]

Yeah, with two balls in one day (both of which have 100% accuracy rates), it's that part of the recruiting where we're expecting winks soon!

 

[Huskyforlife]

Some highlights here. Seems like a nice kid.

This commitment reminds me of Ross. Dan is good at identifying players before they blow up. Let’s hope the shot comes around like Ross did.

I 100% trust Hurley and the staff at identifying talent and fit, I think they're the best in the country at it but Abraham's ranking has gone down.

Doesn't mean it will remain down though.

He seems like he can defend and cut. Even if Karaban leaves early for the NBA, Stewart, Ross, and Ball are all guys who will put up points. It’s not the end of the world if one wing isn’t wired to score. Hurley scouts so well that you have to trust him

Yeah, I’m not high on him yet tbh. But I’ll acknowledge the upside in a 6’7 kid with major athleticism. The shot not being broken gives me hope he’ll get to a point of consistently making open ones. But he’s a project at the end of the day.
