He’s made the decision
Until Saturday afternoon May 6 we had no idea where Kevin Knox was headed. Mizzou was late to the party but a player in the final decision. Mizzou along with Duke, Kentucky, Florida State and North Carolina. Early Saturday evening came word Knox had reached a decision, the 6-8 wing chose the Kentucky Wildcats. Kentucky remains solidly entrenched in first place recruiting regarding Class of 2017 prospects.
I laugh out loud
Almost every time I read or hear a Kristaps Porzingis story I laugh out loud. The youngster has expressed his concerns regarding the direction of the Knicks although he’s indicated a desire to remain in NYC. According to ESPN several NBA teams have reached out to the Knicks in hopes of securing the 7-3 power forward/center in a trade. As for the laughter please note it not aimed at Porzingis its Stephen A. Smith.
Smith claims to be all knowledgeable about basketball and the NBA missed badly on this one. Did I have a clue Porzingis was going to be a star----of course I didn’t. I read a number of scouting reports prior to the 2015 I knew of Porziginia. From Smith’s rant it appeared he read very little on Porzingis or maybe nothing at all. One thing for sure I didn’t make a fool of myself the day after the draft. Feel free to skip portions or be prepared to adjust your volume downward. Oh and don’t forget to laugh at Smith with his brilliant ability to SEE NBA talent.

As we look ahead to the 2018 prospects at this late date several 2017 prospects remain uncommitted. I don’t believe it has anything to do with anything except they are yet to decide.

Trevon Duval (4)
Brian Bowen (20)
M.J. Walker (24)
Tremont Waters (37)
Jeremiah Tilmon (42)
Mark South (52)
Jordan Tucker (68)
Class of 2017 ranking according to Rivals, the two candidates in bold type is Mizzou prospects.
Say what?
We have no idea who will be wearing BBB shoes but it will not be UCLA. CBS Sports pointed out UCLA signed a 15-year contract with Under Armour last year. LiAngelo will be a freshman at the school in the fall but will wear the shoes UCLA is contracted to wear. We are unsure what shoes Chino Hills wears but its likely they won’t be the BBB brand. LaMelo is guaranteed to wear something other than his family brand shoe too. So there you have it only one of the three Ball brothers will wear the shoe next season isn’t that an interesting development?
