Background: The Moscow Kid, aka the “Celebrity”, is not scared of the big lights, as he has always been in the spotlight. While in high school, his head coach said he was the biggest star he has been around at 16! This guy has a GROWN-MAN GAME in all caps.

He gets Buckets on the court and has always made it look easy when he come over here for the camps; he was the best player in every one and the media flocked to him. He even was on ESPN top plays a couple of times this summer, the kid is BIG.

 

Scouting Report:

 

Athleticism: Average speed, average quickness, Great stamina. Really this the only area of his game that could be called a weakness.

 

Offense: Shoot it from outside, inside, and around the side????? Need I say more, he can flat out score. As a rookie, he might lead the class in PPG

 

Defense: Well, he wont ever be your strongest defender, and he wont lead your team in rebounding, but did I tell you he can SCORE. That’s his best Defense

 

IT Factor: The Drake of his City, he is ready to put Moscow on the map and could change a Franchise when he gets there.
