From Mountain View to Miami the unconventional way. Did St. Francis retire his number yet?

Man, that kid could play!

You guys remember how under-recruited he was? I think he had one offer and that was to Fresno State after that deep run they had in the state finals. How many teams missed on him? Yikes. His younger brother has the same type of athleticism.

Good for him.

Pretty interesting story written by Pablo Torre - I especially liked the part about being a 5'8" 140 lb sophomore who didn't make varsity at St Francis yet kept grinding.....This was before I started watching high school basketball / WCAL play so I missed his high school career unfortunately.

He had star written on in because he played a lot bigger than his 6"3 size and he's a lefty. Athletically he was in a different league. But yeah he was a sleeper because he grew late and blossomed after most peak. Plus he played in a great program and learned how to be a good teammate. Nice story from what seems like a great kid and family.
