My jaw hit the floor when I watched that video earlier in the week.

He's like OJ Mayo, he's being scouted when he in junior high :D But it'll be funny to see how he turns out

This might be a stupid question, but does anyone think that the whole oxygen thing could be a health risk later on? I don't know how, but sometimes things like that can be a concern

I thought this was going to be another thread about Raymar Morgan.

Not sure but it looked like Federal Way, WA. Right near Brian Scalabrine's and Jon Lester's hometowns.

He is too short; look at the kids on his team tower over him and the height of his dad. He better hope he hits a growth spurt or he will end up as another Curly Neal.

I bet within about 3-4 years we never hear about him again.

We should find a way of signing him now and stashing him in jr high for a few years.

All the kidding aside, the kid can make it in the NBA if he keeps on practing 4 hours a day. He has skills.

I think its a lot more likely that this kid makes it as a track star or cross-country runner than a basketball player...

If you figure he has to be 6'0" to make the NBA, and he's short now, and Dad didn't look that tall in the interview...

Earl Boykins, Nate Robinson and many other disagree, if your above 5'6 and have spectacular skills you can make it. It is most defintly harder but it can be done, and that kid is well on his way.
