I know BobBarker posted in the basketball recruiting thread but I felt like it deserved its own thread.

Blakeney had 50 points and 10 rebounds.....went 13/14 shooting from two and 6/8 shooting from three.....6/6 from the line. BEAST

Here are highlights:

Dude is an absolute stud. He is a machine when it comes to putting in work to perfect his craft.

Yeah, that documentary on Youtube is legit and I encourage anyone to go watch it. I don't think I've seen many other high school kids put in the amount of work outside of games like he does

Agree 100%. I watched the three documentaries and I'm equally excited about having Blakeney as I am Simmons. I can't wait. PMAC is going to be on and poppin!!!!

Gonna be like having what could have been a college version of Lebron and Kobe IMO in Simmons and Blakeney. I think the games translate if you really watch both of them in comparison. Not saying that they are anywhere near that NBA elite level yet but just imagine Kobe and Lebron in college, this is what you would get.

I hope and pray M&M come back next year because that is easily a Final Four team if they do

I agree, you have Blakeney who can be the consistent scorer, and a guy like Simmons who the offense can run through because of his play making ability, and his passing game. Oh is would be perfect.

the best part about Blakeney is his skillset absolutely complements Simmons. It's gonna be a fun ride next season folks

I don't really know much about this kid, but is he a raw freakish athlete or more of a fundamentally sound guy, or a combo of both?

He has great athleticism with a lot of technical skill and polish. He's a great shooter.

Only real "weakness" is his defense, which he can compensate with his athletic ability.
