Won't let put video on here. If somebody could do that for me, thanks!

 

[THE HCP]

Actually he's got more Kobe in his game than 'Bron.

 

[Strenuus]

The kid who got posterized is going to be talked about by Zags for years to come.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

I can't believe how athletic some of these kids are getting. He looks scary good.

Trade LaMarcus in 2017 for a washed up PF and a #1 draft pick! :MARIS61:

Complete opposite. Clyde had NO handles! Clyde made Wes Mathews look like John Stockton!

Not quite, but Clyde's handles were way closer to Outlaw's or Barton's than LeBron's!

Actually, Barton reminds me of Clyde a lot.

It seems they don't call that hideous carry in youth ball. However, he looks amazing.

Fixed it for you.

Kid's a natural, already got the Jordan traveling down.

Crazy hops, but it appears he's only 6'2" at best, according to the Googler.

-- When Lehigh guard C.J. McCollum was a freshman at GlenOak High School in Canton, Ohio, he was only 5 feet, 2 inches. He grew 5 inches as a sophomore, 4 inches as a junior and 3 inches as a senior.

Yeah, at 14, he's probably not done growing. If he adds even another 3 inches of height, he'll have excellent size for a shooting guard.

I thought CJ was older than that. So I guess he better not have any sex, or Denny will have him thrown in jail.

Yeah, and Rodman grew 8" in college. Exceptions don't mean the rule. "Next LeBron" to me means a 6'8" 255lb player who changes the way you view the game. Next Dwyane Wade seems more likely, best case.

 

[Rhal]

That kids got some impressive athleticism for his age. Its fun to watch but who knows if this kid will be any good once he gets to play against guys who have elite athleticism and size as well.

Speaking of all this growing, how does ones body handle that? Wasn't all the talk about Paul George all about how much he grew and so fast.....even since he was drafted. Wonder if all that finally took a toll on his bones?

Lots of people have grown fast. In addition to the Rodman example, Pippen also gained a bunch of height in college. In quite a few articles about NBA players I've read, it's been mentioned that they grew significantly during high school, which turned them into top prospects for college. They don't all end up with horrific bone breaks...George's was probably just bad luck.

Like Raymond Felton, for instance.

Oh, you said fast. Never mind.

When I think about this subject, David Robinson always comes to mind, since he grew 7 inches in college. He never would have even been admitted to the Naval Academy had he been a 7 footer in high school.

Kid is 16 according to my coworker who's son played against him in a tourney

He turns 16 on Thursday, but he's going into his junior year of HS. Kid has great athletic ability, but unless he grows 6-8" over the next two years, comparing him with LeBron James is a bit much. Steve Francis or Russell Westbrook?

 

[BlayZa]

more kobe/penny/mcgrady than lbj, he could grow that way tho
