6'3" PG from Kingston, NY

5 star I think

[hhcmatt]

Playing in Atlanta against older kids

Wow. He is a baller. Really excited to see us going after an Oakland point guard, but I guess he is originally from New York. Plays aau for the Oakland Soldiers.

 

BTW another kid who played for the Oakland solidiers aau team who was not from Oakland.... LeBron James

Syracuse bound

Decommitted from Syracuse

This was a Hoiberg offer

He’s now at his 7th high school and he’s only a junior? Goodness. Became somewhat of a celebrity a few years ago when he played on the same team as Lebron’s son. Wouldn’t be surprised if he commits to a couple more schools, but never plays college basketball.

Kinda digging this one up, but...

 

 

Most people don't expect him to play even one minute of college ball, but nevertheless, he's committed to Oregon.

"And he said, 'I won't actually come play for you, but on your deathbed, you'll receive total consciousness.' So, I got that going for me. Which is nice."

Big hitter, the Lama.  Long.

Pitt

Final(?) tally is 10 high schools.  https://usatodayhss.com/2021/dior-johnson-southern-california-academy-10th-high-school

 

I'm wondering what the odds are that he is still on the roster for Pitt's final game.

"Former 5-star and JUCO All-American" is not a phrase you hear often...

AAU Ball and select teams are ruining basketball.  Team players come from Europe.

[Chuck Taylor]

His "career" also was slowed by:

Chris Beard might be interested in him?
