Dead Dog Alley Posted December 14, 2015 Report Posted December 14, 2015 Here's what some quick internet search engine effort turns out on him. He was born in Spain, and the family moved to England when he was 12. He tried out for the Spanish National U16 team in 2013 but doesn't appear to have made the final roster. Some video from that time is on youtube but it doesn't show much. He started playing for Modesto Christian HS in California last January. It is obviously a private school with an enrollment of about 350. He was the second leading scorer for a team that went 30-4, averaging 14 points, 8 rebounds, 2.5 blocks in 24 games. Their leading scorer was a 6'6", 215 lb kid who is currently averaging 5 points and 3.5 rebounds for a 1-7 Pacific team. He was listed on their roster at 6'9", 200 last year and 6'10", 205 this year. Through 4 games he's putting up about 16 points, 11 rebounds, and 3.5 blocks for a team that averages 60 ppg. His rivals profile lists him at 6'9", 205. So, he's a 6'9" to 6'10" kid from overseas playing in CA who needs to put on some weight and keep developing some skills. That sure sounds a lot like Vander Joaquim, the one time Husker commit who did have a pretty nice career at Hawaii. hhcmatt 1 Quote

uneblinstu Posted December 14, 2015 Report Posted December 14, 2015 Long, lean and may or may not be under rated. 6' 9" 205, huh? Can we get about 50 lbs on him before next year? Quote

AuroranHusker Posted April 7, 2016 Report Posted April 7, 2016 Sounds like a potential tweet from an HHC'er... Quote
AuroranHusker Posted May 17, 2016 Report Posted May 17, 2016 Idehen blocks Modesto Christian buddy’s shot to seal all-star win Robinson Idehen, Ellis’ 6-foot-10 MC teammate, did his duty for the Red team. He practically inhaled his buddy’s shot to preserve his team’s 100-96 victory Friday night. “He fouled me, and hard,” Ellis playfully argued as Idehen stood close by. “I got a crick in my neck. Hey, this was supposed to be an all-star game!” http://www.modbee.com/sports/high-school/article76270012.html VIDEO: http://www.modbee.com/sports/article76270142.html/video-embed Quote
