Without Dylan Disu I dunno how we're gonna deal with this man on Saturday. Our center was 6'7 yesterday. Hopefully this dude just gets in foul trouble.

Maybe he should hit a burger

Lebron was insane but didnt Derrick Henry rush for like 4 thousand yards every season in high school?

Can’t have the GOAT high school athlete debate without mentioning Jimmy Clausen

Their teams played when Lebron was a junior and Carmelo a senior.
I watched that game and LeBron was the best player on the floor and it wasn't really close.

Our country has produced multiple HS kids that won multiple gold medals… meaning they were best in the world in open competition. Lebron was not the best in world in HS by any stretch of imagination.

Lol so the best professional basketball league in the world which generally includes the best athletes in the world compared to other professional leagues drafted a HS kid #1 overall even over college players. Not only was LeBron the best HS basketball player in the world that year he was likely a top 3 if not #1 amateur basketball player in the world. Basketball and football are clearly the two sports that take the most athleticism to play and LBJ would have been a top recruit in both. I can't stand the dude but he's unreal.

LBJ was amazing, but I was responding to the post saying he was best all time HS athlete.
Michael Phelps won 7 Olympic medals, 5 gold medals right after he graduated HS.

And Lebron is 100x the athlete Phelps ever thought about being.

WCA,
What’s the criteria for this? Just high school accomplishments?

So not in HS. Got it.

He’s not even the best player in his class. Paolo Banchero is better and will be a better pro

At the 2003 World Aquatics Championships, Phelps won four gold medals, two silver medals, and broke five world records.
Next comment??

FYI The last two times Holmgren and Banchero played each other Holmgren dominated him.
Posted on 11/12/21 at 9:31 am to MrLSU
Chet is probably the best player in the country. Really worried about him when Bama plays them in Seattle.
Posted on 11/12/21 at 9:56 am to MrLSU
Banchero gives me young Carmelo vibes. Jayson Tatum, too.
The game is just slowed down for Holmgren though. Very impressive skill set for that size
