re: Craig Victor leaves St.Aug for Findlay Prep

Scouts are saying that to dozens of kids though. It's important because it shows he's on their radar, but there are usually at most 2-3 kids who are guaranteed lottery picks before their senior years.

I mean just look at the Scout rankings this year. The guy in front of Victor is playing on the US U-19 national team with a bunch of college sophomores, and it's not like he is some Tyler Hansbrough type who was intentionally held back for 2 years so he could dominate younger kids.

He is a 17 year old who is playing better than all conference players in an international tournament, and there are still a dozen guys in this year's senior class ranked above him in all of the sites.

Your cousin (nephew?) is obviously a special talent, and he is being buttered up by assistant coaches and scouts because they like him, but to be fair, a lot of those guys are professional brown-nosers who are doing the same thing to plenty of other kids who are showing the ability to be future NBA players.

Btw, why did all of the good seniors besides Victor, Looney, and a couple others skip the NBPA camp this year? All of the top underclassmen were there, but it seemed like the seniors were skipping it for the most part. Okafor and Winslow have an excuse, but not the others
