    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_3kVNs7nwQ  For those who haven’t seen him or heard of him this kid going to Auburn next year.  (As in 2012)  He’ll be someone to look out for just in terms of raw athletic ability alone.

    yeah, looks like he is dunking on an 8′ rim.  like I said before about this guy, he should not even be worried about dunking right now, his athleticism is not in question.  he should be trying to work on shooting, ballhandling, and defense….at least try and get as good a jumper as he can to try and be a J-Rich type.

    I used to play ball with him in HS so I know him personally, but Salem wasn’t very good or well-coached so he bounced and went to Milton were scouts could notice him. Over this past year he really took off in terms of being noticed by scouts, so the move to Milton was a successful one. Shaq is the best athlete I’ve ever been on a basketball court with, and it’s not even really close. And I’ve seen some pretty good athletes before. He’s a silly guy who jokes around alot, and he literally was 6’4 or 6’5 195 when he was in 8th grade lol. He couldn’t even dunk back then if you can believe it! He’s worked hard and has improved leaps and bounds since those days though obviously, physically, athletically and in his skill-set. He needs to work on his skill set more though, which is a good bit behind his athleticism (he plays like a combo forward, whih obviously is a bit unacceptable if you’re 6’5 205 like he is, that’s why he gets little high-major love), but he has improved every year. I hope he does well at Auburn.
