Pretty cool.

That's crazy hops

He's an awesome athlete and plays hard. I think he'd be a better free safety than point guard.

I saw where NFL teams were showing interest in him as a DB. Did he play football in high school?

In the AAU state championship when he was in the 7th grade, he had a goal tending on one of our kids (uncalled) and I yelled it at the official and he says "coach, this is 7th grade". So, in the 7th grade if you are skilled enough to goal tend a shot from the short corner, well, it's not really a goal tend because 7th graders aren't supposed to be able to get that far above the cylinder.:lol2:
