I wonder where the money for those thousands of dollars of basketball shoes came from? He says his mother works hard to support them. Most have a good job.

They get lots of shoes through AAU and mentors. I'm not judging or anything, but kids, especially young basketball players, place a premium on shoes these days

AAU. Shoe companies love giving away stuff to promote their brand.

I thought the same thing......and those personal trainers/coaches that didn't seem to be affiliated with his school, too.

They get them at big camps (Kobe, Lebron, KG) and AAU tournaments, and I am sure some are bought.

With high school basketball players of his caliber, this is not a sign of impropriety.
