    DaJuan Coleman is a BIG boy. 6’8 and 240 at age 15? That’s just stupid growth.

    Another J. Smith? Why does everyone who has the last name smith have to call their kid something that starts with J?

  • http://hibachi20.blogspot.com Blinguo

    Right Jack, (another 4 letter J name yourself – ironic but probably not Smith too right?), more Roscoe Smith’s would be pretty cool. But for typo reasons one Terrence is Caps and the other dude didn’t get his! And there’s a designer in there, Perry Ellis.

    Where is the Gatorade National Player of the year-Brandon Knight? He is declined due to his injuries?

    Where is the Gatorade National POY-Brandon Knight? Did he declined to participate due to his injuries?

    I should point out that Brandon Knight was invited but will not play due to injury. Michael Gilchrist, the top ranked junior in the nation, was also invited but has decided not to participate.

  • chingy

    Proud of Tristan Thompson and Cory Joseph…finally some Canadian blood!

  • chingy

    Also, Myck Kabongo can play (tho he didn’t get an invite to this camp/game)

  • Coach Wells

    Three kids from the Grassroots Canada AAU squad. Not bad at all. Canada doing it’s thing. Says a lot about the calibre of players in Coach Ro Russell’s program

  • Rio Adams

    Tony Wroten is about to dominate. Last year he was the only un selfish player on the court. Knight is a big time ball hog yo

  • Tresdad1

    Three kids from Charm City (Baltimore)— Barton, Selby and Roscoe Smith!!!

  • Big Yo

    Keep an eye on Shelby and Barton. Young boys got alot of game and heart.

  • Cuse Watcher

    Dajuan is not 15! He is almost 17! fail 2 times!

  • stevie

  • JD

  • zach

    So apparently it’s going to pour. Would the game/dunk contest be rescheduled?
