    Slamadaday: Tim Frazier on Keewyn Reece

    No sound, no problem.

    This is the footage Penn State fans have been waiting for. When Strake Jesuit published its game report after Friday’s 48-62 win against Spring Woods HS, saying that Tim Frazier jumped over Keewyn Reece, fans buzzed about the athleticism of the 6-2, 160-pound guard.

    But no one imagined he actually did this!

    Frazier, a Houston native, is the nation’s and a three-star recruit. Called “Tiny Mini” by his teammates because of his wiry strong frame, Frazier will need to add muscle as a Nittany Lion next season, but he already has the tools to be Talor Battle’s heir apparent. With Stanley Pringle gone, Frazier will have a legitimate shot at starting from the getgo.

    The accolades continue: Frazier’s the reigning high school Defensive Player of the Year, and Rivals named him the quickest Big Ten recruit. He rebounds well for his size, recording a triple-double this season. Frazier’s offensive game is exactly this: attacking the basket with a vengeance. He gets most of his points in the paint, hence his high field goal percentage. His outside shot is the biggest area in which he needs to improve–he’s made only five 3s on the season (off of 13 attempts). You can check the rest of his senior stats here.

    Frazier led the team last Friday with 19 points, 5 boards and 3 steals. The team finished its regular season yesterday with a 32-0 record. The Crusaders are ranked No. 1 in Texas’ largest classification, Class 5A, and MaxPreps ranks the team No . 7 in the nation.

      Who the f*ck wrote all this sh*t about a Penn State recruit without checking with me first?

    • Ryne Nelson Posted: Feb.18 at 10:07 am
      Ummm…sorry?

    • slamfan4life Posted: Feb.18 at 10:11 am
      DAMN

    • Ryan Jones Posted: Feb.18 at 10:13 am
      It is too late for sorry. I am hurt beyond words.

    • Ryan Jones Posted: Feb.18 at 10:15 am
      Also, you misspelled Talor’s first name… but you redeemed yourself by mentioning Stanley without a library reference. I doubt your fellow Illini will be so polite this evening.

    • Ryan Jones Posted: Feb.18 at 10:17 am
      Anyway, great clip. If he’s as good as he seems like he might be, he and Talor can ball out the next two years, and if we can get Battle’s little brother to come in ‘10, we might finally get something cooking out here. Would be nice…

      I figured I’d start the anguish early. ;-)

      Looks like another Russell Westbrook type…

    • ciolkstar Posted: Feb.18 at 10:49 am
      H-TOWN represent!

    • Justin Walsh Posted: Feb.18 at 11:26 am
      5A texas talent. Atta boy Ryne.

    • Sparker Posted: Feb.18 at 12:04 pm
      but 160?

    • Ryne Nelson Posted: Feb.18 at 12:06 pm
      That’s nothing the buffet/weight room can’t solve, Sparker. In the local broadcast videos and interviews, he didn’t look too bad. He’ll put on the weight.

    • Ryan Jones Posted: Feb.18 at 12:16 pm
      We’ll get him on that Penn State Creamery ice cream up here. He’ll put on the weight EASY.

    • [...] Hopefully you were intrigued by this thunderous dunk Frazier had in his last game. Well thanks to SlamOnline, it’s surfaced on youtube. I hope you enjoy as much as I am. All I can say [...]

      It must have been difficult for the defender to explain this to his girlfriend…

    • j-smoov 5 Posted: Feb.18 at 5:05 pm

    • Witness Posted: Feb.18 at 6:54 pm
