was briefly at RL Paschal High School and Laurinburg Institute his senior year before deciding to attend and play at Heritage Christian Academy in Cleveland, Texas, where he averaged 26 points, 8 rebounds, 4 steals, and 4 blocks per game. Wafer is only the seventh McDonald's High School All-American to play at Florida State University. During the game, he scored 29 points on 13 of 20 shooting from the field and had 8 rebounds. He also finished second to LeBron James in the McDonald's All-American slam-dunk contest.
WOW are you serious?! He sounds like a star in the making! Actually I'm surprised he's not already! Who knew?!?!
Too bad he's not another Lebron It's pretty obvious he's got skills. I mean everyone in the NBA does. I hope he does prosper into a solid rotation guy for us though. So far, so good!
Haha nice wikipedia work I just corrected the mistake though, which is the 29 points he supposedly scored in the McDonald's High School All-American game. He only scored 8 and I'm very doubtful about those high school numbers, it seems like some1 made up a whole lot of crap. What I just found out though, after some serious research, is that Wafer scored 30 points on 7/12 from three against Chris Paul's, who scored 29, with Florida St. to stop a 10 game winning streak of Wake Forest. http://seminoles.cstv.com/sports/m-baskbl/recaps/011805aaa.html
Heritage is a very very small school. They have churned out quite a few D1 prospects over the last 5-10 years.
Did YOU know that von wafer counts among his accomplishments being the ONLY player in the NBA to have the distinction of being embarrassed by kirk snyder? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vj3RDoK118Y
Old News, Did you know this is OLD? How about this thread is a waste of time? Or wait my all time favorite, Did you know that this thread fails due to Oldness?
Did you know that by simpling replacing a couple of letters, and adding a few others, Von Wafer can easily be changed to spell Vanilla Wafer? It's true. It' science...
I'd ask everyone to consider making thread titles actually mean something. It's just like an e-mail subject line...summarize the thread! Don't just write the beginning of your post..
actually knows how to dribble....... yeah its true, i saw him take the ball , bounce it off the ground a few times........
He really has it all: the shot, the athleticism and the European sounding name that also sounds like a delicious cookie.
He is what he is right now,that's the past man.He spent 3 yrs in the league without anybody's recognition,averaging only over 1 pt per game in Portland. Who knew? Maybe he'll be better and better with Rockets,let's make a wish.
