Two years ago, I worked at Steph Curry's camp. I was, of course, impressed and in awe of his astonishing shooting ability. But what I will remember is how he made himself finish EVERY shooting drill until completed under the guidance of Brandon Payne, whom he just called to thank from Paris. The right-hand-left-hand free throws still blows my mind! Stephen Curry

When BYU put the ball in AJ Dybantsa's hands, he delivered. I love his demeanor. A blend of alpha confidence and unselfishness. He definitely has some flaws but steps up to a challenge. It will be debated all season long, but he is the number one pick in the NBA Draft come June. As of today, I can’t imagine somebody leaving him on the board.

Cayden Boozer stepped up and was a big reason Duke capture the ACC Tournament, and today he was Duke’s leading scorer against a scrappy and tough Siena team. Let’s not forget that Cayden was named the MVP of the Peach Jam as a junior in high school. As a senior, he hit the game‑winning shot to help Columbus advance to the Chipotle Nationals and win the championship. He’s a gamer, and he doesn’t need the spotlight. Duke Basketball

I would encourage every high school coach to take their team to a college practice. It will reinforce everything you plan to teach during the season and set clear expectations. It will also be an eye-opening experience for players to see the intensity level, vocal communication, and the teamwork involved. Lipscomb Men's Basketball

Analysis of Nate Ament, the No. 4 overall recruit in the ESPN 100, committing to Tennessee: He currently stands at 6’9 with an elongated frame, exhibiting smooth movement and refined skills. He has the potential to score effectively at all three levels. His ball-handling is fluid, complemented by his passing vision and a legitimate 3-point shot, impressive given his size. He contributes on the boards, pushes the pace and has shown significant improvement playing through contact. He has shades of Kevin Durant in body type and skill set at the same stage. For Rick Barnes, this continues to demonstrate his elite recruiting ability. His strong returning group has just added a major piece. Video SportsCenter NEXT
