There are 2 things I hate most in sports...
1. Cheating
2. Under rated players
Since I have no affect on the first one...I'll deal wit the 2nd one. I would like to focus on the 2 most under rated by highly focused players around.
If we are talking about talent in high school basketball...that must end this year. These two players I stand with are two of the most under rated players around. Players who have all the potential and game to play at any level but have not quit received the opportunity to show that.
This picture is from a year ago in the summer of 09 when I attended the national top sophomore & freshmen camp in the country...where highly ranked players like Ricardo Ledo, Alex Murphy (Duke), Rasheed Sulaimon (Duke), Landen Lucas, & Khem Birch (Pitt) attended.
Ky Howard (Shipley) & Markeith Mont (World Comm) attended the camp after having a outstanding headliner camp. Along with proving themselves, they had outstanding high school careers so far. In Mont's soph. year he averaged 19.1 ppg & then jumped to 21.9 ppg in his jr. year. In Howard's soph. year, he lead the friends league with 16.7 ppg & then in his jr. year, he remained the scoring champ with 17.6 ppg.
These two players have not only helped lead their program in many different ways but also have been league MVPs of the well-respected Sonny Hill League & have not slowed down in anyway to march into a very promising season. It's no telling what these two will do this season, but based on what their skill level is and what they have been doing...YOU WILL ONLY SEE AN INCREASE. Underrated...I THINK SO...HIGHLY!
Ky Howard....
Mark Mont.....
