Top Junior Recruit Jayson Tatum Posterizes Defender at Nike EYBL in Lexington (VIDEO)
At the Nike EYBL, there are never a shortage of highlights. However, each session, there are always a few that stand out. In Lexington, it was Jayson Tatum who stole the show by posterizing the Greek Freak’s younger brother Kostas Antetokounmpo.
The #1 player in the class of 2016 for our latest Fresh 50 had an outstanding weekend in Lexington, culminating in the St. Louis Eagles’ finale against Playground Elite. Late in the second half, Tatum, who was playing in front of Tom Izzo, John Calipari and Roy Williams, got the rock in transition and seemingly was cruising in for an easy two. Antetokounmpo came flying down the floor for a potential chase-down block, but ultimately wound up on the wrong end of a vicious poster dunk. A serious prospect with major potential in his own right, Kostas has seen his stock skyrocket in the past week, resulting in a Big 12 scholarship offer from Iowa State.
