I don't think there is 1 prospect in the drfat who is mid level size 6-5 and up who has these skills with the athletic ability and hes in 8th grade.

So stupid that he has to play a year of High School ball.
Maybe this is the next phenom. I heard about Lebron filling Jordan's shoes years before he was drafted

We got a 1ster in 2020 right? Better make some reservations for the Tank for 2020 then.

gotta wonder if he's already 6'5 how much more he'll grow? kid has serious skills - also wonder if all that dunking at an early age is bad for his knees?

Let's hope he doesn't lose his mind before he finishes highschool. He is certainly talented
Thank God Fisher is no longer our coach, now let's get Calderon out of here:)

Insane skill development for such a young teen. I coach 8th graders and I know how difficult it is to train them from the ground up and get them ready for HS. This kid has not only be balling since he escaped the womb, but he's been getting some serious fundamental training...Amazing!!!

He would be allowed to play for a High School team where I live. If I was him I would hit the books and graduate early. Then again it maybe best to enjoy your youth. I hope he has a good head on his shoulders and a great support system around him.

He actually looks like MJ with that fadeaway from the side and the double pump reverse layup. This guy would be the number 1 pick when he comes out for sure. If his body develops--I might be giving up HS at 16 if they can get me a huge endorsement deal and 3mm a yr in china.

Our best player was 5-11 and was dunking. Super freaky athlete.
Never grew, never got better.
By high school he was tapped.
OJ mayo was the same height he as in 8th grade and seen as the next big thing.
Not to say he was a bust by any means!
This is fun stuff! We all wonder who the next king will be. Lebron has no peer yet.
Obvious he is crazy athletic for his age.

the question is will he be able to do all that at 6'11''-7'0'' and how will he adjust. If he can still do those things watch out! Plenty of successful bigs who were guards as teenagers but had a growth spurt

His handle for his size/age is incredible.
