RE: Kostas Antetokumnpo-'16 SF(Memphis Offer)
Quote:He is still raw and unpolished, but Kostas Antetokounmpo is long, athletic, rapidly progressing and a genetic lottery winner.
The younger brother of the "Greek Freak" Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks, Kostas appears to be headed in the same direction as his older brother.
"Kostas is still kind of raw, but his upside is unreal," said his coach Duane Wilson of the Playground Elite in the Nike EYBL circuit. "He is really starting to get it. He could even be better than Giannis because he can shoot it better. Kostas already has pro moves, he just needs to get stronger so he can finish them."
In his two-year career, Giannis has become a cult hero because of his extremely rare skill set. The No. 15 pick by the Bucks in the 2013 Draft, he's averaged 12.7 points and 6.7 rebounds per game.
At 6-foot-9, 190 pounds and with an enormous wingspan, Kostas runs like a deer, plays with a high motor and repeatedly shows flashes of greatness. He is consistently progressing in filling the gaps in his game.
He is currently ranked as a five-star at No. 21 in the updated 2016 Top247.
Duane Wilson Jr currently plays for Marquette, case closed!!!

Wolo would retire if he had to pronounce that name.

No recruit is good enough to save a bad coaches job...

Not true - you'd stick around for Anthony Davis or Andrew Wiggins or Ben Simmons.
You don't stick around for an unranked kid with a famous last name.

In that case, where do I send the shoebox suitcase full of money to make sure we get him?
