He looks good but there are a bunch of guys around dunking like that at 6'2
Not sure about "a bunch". He's doing some pretty crazy stuff for a 6'2" guy. His eyes were almost at rim level on that one stick back, which is just crazy.

There are tons of freakish athletes
The problem is many of those freakish athletes don't have skills

Averaged 6 ppg in AAU and shot 38% from the field.
Ranked 240+ in 247 ranking.
Fun to watch him abuse low level Gateway-type schools, though.
Whats different about this guy and other athletes ranked 240
What do you mean?
He's white and can jump out of the gym if that is what you mean.
Just from my quick review, he is extremely gifted physically and it appears he plays in one of the lowest levels in Virginia hoops and his region, in particular, lacks talent. So he puts up gaudy numbers through pure physical superiority.
I guess, based on his ranking, he doesn't have that separation when he plays other players of equal or better stature. Thus, averaging 6 ppg in AAU....
