Local high school 7 footer

[superjohn]

Not anything like Clingan's level in terms of production or all around game but he's someone to keep tabs on. Just going off of short clips he's just now growing into his body and looks way less awkward than he used to. He's pretty huge and moves really well getting down the court and gets up quick for finishes. Still just 16 and I think it's safe to say he will get a lot better.

I’m always team “take the local kids” until we get bad context, like Toure. Watching London Jemison at Bama is annoying. I hope we keep tabs on this kid if he’s our level of recruit.

I have heard from people close to the Stamford High program that this kid’s improvement arc has been significant, and that he has a tremendous work ethic. I’m going to get to a few games in the next month and will share thoughts.

Same here. I’m a close drive to a few FCIAC schools, so I’ll check him out. Thanks for posting @superjohn

Heard staff is starting to get more involved. Believe Luke is on this one.

He was listed at 6'10 last season and is now listed at 7'0 265 lbs. His high school team isn't all that good, they're just 3-3 now. Just based on clips he looks a lot more fluid now than he did last season or even AAU where he plays for the NY Lightning (good program) averaged 7.5 pts, 5 rbs, 1.5 blocks in EYBL. There's a lot to work with there if he gets good coaching.

7 footer at age 16 and is already 265 lbs?

Do you make a point to wear the UConn swag when you go?

Locally? Not since Rash Jones was at Stamford (Trinity) Catholic. Didn’t wear any UConn gear to Austrie’s high school games because everyone assumed he was heading to UMass. And Dave McClure was always a Duke lean. Other than a few MAAC/NEC/AE D1 signees, and a handful of D2 and D3 players, Connecticut’s now-second-largest city has produced very little basketball talent in the last 25 years, and it’s a total head scratcher to me. Stamford isn’t lacrosse, hockey and football crazed like our three immediate bordering neighbors to the west and east.

I heard about him for the first time last night. His mother doesn’t want him to come here from words of a mutual friend.
