AAU Showcase and Nationals


In Orlando, there are some great games going on this week.  The AAU Super Showcase is wrapping up tonight on ESPNU and should provide some great games.  This morning I took some time to watch the first games in the 17U’s Pool Play and saw some good talents.  Each1Teach1 minus Brandon Knight is a very solid team that will be hard for anyone to beat.  Team Texas Elite who provides some good talent looks very solid with Phil Pressey leading the way.

Tonight I am looking forward to seeing Adreian Payne in action again.  Payne has some great athletic ability and showed the ability to knock down the 3 as well.  Defensively he was not all that impressive the first couple of times watching him play but he has shown that he can definitely get the job done when he wants.  In warm ups he is a really fun player to watch as he can throw down just about any dunk you could ask.

There are a whole host of players that will be playing this week in Orlando so it should be a great opportunity to get some looks at the players that UK is looking.  Tune in tonight to ESPNU and you can catch some of the action.
