My bad. I was referring to the Rico run. Saw the tall white kid and thought it was Cooper lol. It's not him at second glance. I'm still aboard his hype train though.
We could be looking at the #1 picks in the 2024 and 2025 draft (Buzelis may have a bit tougher time being #1 than Flagg will at this point, but it's still possible). Cooper is 16 years old and 6'8"-6'9" while Buzelis is 6'10"-6'11" and 18. Here's an interview with Buzelis that JJ Reddick did a few weeks ago :
Pretty cool slate of HS talent. Wondering if they'll do anything to supplement for NCAA level competition, since that's been one of the bigger criticisms of OTE. Instead of solidifying their platform as an NCAA alternative, its starting to look like another athletic prep school. Was hoping to see some international academies on the schedule.
Since some of you guys like Reed Sheppard so much : I found this high school video of Strive for Greatness taking on Midwest Basketball Club. SFG was basically a high school super-team that had players like Bronny James, Rob Dillingham, Wesley Yates, and some others. MBC had Reed Sheppard and a couple of other notables from high schools. But I think James, Dillingham, and Yates were considered cream of the crop coming out of high school in this game - I could be missing somebody, though. The passing and shooting in this game by MBC is so fun to watch. Everybody can pass the ball. It's almost like everybody knows where to be and what to do for most of the game and they work like a machine. MBC wins the game, and pretty much took care of business the entire game, I think.
