i love the macdonald's all american events and looking up some of the players led me to this ranking.

interesting...i was hoping to see some not so obvious names but here is the list...hard to argue as i didn't really see these guys in high school but it is still interesting....
the best players i ever saw play in high school were: eugene edgerson (currently a harlem globe trotter and was starting PF/C on the ncaa championship team with miles simon and bibby), stromile swift, and the best i saw ever was lester earl (beat kobe in the mcdonald's all american dunk contest)..... lester went to lsu and let's just say he played for dale brown...nuff said....he would transfer to kansas but playing with already established paul pierce and lafrentz compounded with injuries shorten his NBA destiny.....

ReplyDeletezo averaged a triple double in HIGH SCHOOL...high school games are only 32 minutes long....he avg'ed 12 blocks which meant some games he might have had 20 blocks....
