What's going on with Duane notice

Myth111 · Post #324 » by **Myth111** » Fri Feb 10, 2012 1:42 am

I can not find much information on him.

Some big news on Huntington Prep. They are playing St. Anthony's, ESPN's #3 team in the country, on Saturday. Will be a great test for Wiggins and the rest of the team.

The much bigger news is they will be playing in Toronto next Friday and Saturday. I will try and find more information if anybody wants to go and see them.

Huntington Prep lost a heartbreaker to St. Anthony's by 1. Negus Webster-Chan had an open look at the buzzer for the win but missed it.

Wiggins had 12 of his teams first 14 points. He only finished with 19. He out-scored the #4 player in the 2012 class by 1 though. 50-49 final.

Wiggins also announced that he has Kentucky and FSU at the top of his list. His parents went to FSU and everybody knows why he has Kentucky high. I really hope he does not go to Kentucky. I do not want to have to cheer for them. Apparently Kentucky is recruiting him the hardest.

Can a mod please do me a favour and update the thread title to just say 'High School Basketball'?

Does anybody actually read what I post on this thread?

I hope that you got to go the game. Huntington Prep is currently playing in Mississauga in case any one is in the area and wants to check it out.

Anthony Bennett (Canada/Findlay Prep) has “it.” By that I mean he owns an Adonis-type frame, has NBA size, a skill package and he’s explosive. The boys who write the checks and draft the players made a big circle around his name.

Huntington Prep season is over because they are not allowed to play in ESPN's tournament. If somebody could explain why they are not allowed but Findlay prep is I would appreciate it.

They could probably beat some NCAA division 1 schools. :lol:

Anthony, a 6-foot-8, 230-pound power forward rated No. 7 in ESPNU 100 and third among unsigned prospects before the April signing period, said he hopes to advance through college quickly to remove the financial burden from his mother.

One year, if he can make it work.

"As long as it takes, I'll stay," he said. "But if I have a great year, I might be leaving."

Anthony Bennett has a busy spring. After the McDonald's game on Wednesday, he's set to play in the National High School Invitational Thursday to Saturday in Bethesda, Md. Findlay Prep and its roster loaded with high-major talent enters as the No. 1 seed among eight teams.

Then it's the Nike Hoop Summit, April 7 in Portland, Ore., followed by the Jordan Brand Classic, April 14 in Charlotte, N.C.

He'll hardly have time to consider his college options, reduced to UNLV, Oregon, Washington, Florida and Kentucky. Bennett said he plans to sign after the Jordan event. The signing period opens April 11.

"I don't want to rush things," he said. "I want to think it through. With so many coaches and players leaving, you don't know what's going on."

Bennett returned from a hamstring injury during the main segment of Findlay's season to average 15.9 points and 10 rebounds. With limited experience -- injuries slowed him last year as a junior, too -- Bennett's best basketball appears ahead.

Bennett and his mother, in separate interviews, mentioned Kentucky first when talking of Anthony's options, although they're not offering many other clues about his impending decision.

"I like Calipari," Edith said. "I like how he talks. He just puts it out on the table and tells you how it is."

The only school I do not want him to go to is Kentucky but it looks like that is where he is heading.

I forgot exactly what it was, but it has something to do with West Virginia state not allowing them for some reason.

Andrew Wiggins and Anthony Bennett will play for the world team at the Nike Hoop Summit

Anthony Bennett should join fellow Findlay Prep teammate Myck Kabongo in Texas

Kaizen · Post #339 » by **Kaizen** » Tue Mar 27, 2012 10:57 pm

His final 5 schools are UNLV, Washington, Oregon, Florida and Kentucky. Shabazz Muhammed, #2 player in the country, dropped UNLV from his list today so I am guessing they are no longer an option for Bennett as well.

Pretty crazy that Wiggins could play in the Nike game 3 times.

5. Anthony Bennett, F, Uncommitted
McDonald's, Jordan, Hoop Summit

After those first four, the obvious NBA talent starts to drop off considerably. Bennett has an NBA body, is a beast on the boards and can score from everywhere on the floor, but his tweener status (he has the body of a power forward and the height of a small forward) may limit his ceiling somewhat. He's a potential mid- to late-first-round pick. Schools in the mix are Florida, Kentucky, Washington, Oregon and UNLV.

McDonald's game is tonight. It will not be on TV in Canada.
