2024 MBB Recruiting Thread 🏀

Thats what the Blums kid who signed with Davidson was. I hate we missed on him.

I laughed when I first saw this comment that Curry got him to sign. But the more I’ve thought about it, I think that’s exactly what happened. :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

Not aware we ever offered though he did make an unofficial visit back in 2022. Father Ponce played for the Niners 1994-96.

Not finding a lot on him. 6-4 SG from Gaithersburg, MD who prepped last year at Loomis Chaffee School in Windsor, CT.

Anyway, a number of links in the Recruit the Bronx below: :point_down:

Not a high level guy. I was trying to figure out if he was a scholarship player.

Same here. Apparently one of his LCS teammates is headed to Davidson per a video I just watched.

Hopefully a pwo but he could be a late bloomer. I imagine he’s a scholarship guy. I doubt fearne doesn’t the kangaroo meme for a pwo.

Well, that was an old vid of LCS coach saying he had a player headed to Davidson - class of 2018 F Nelson Boachie-Yiadom who graduated from DC in 2022 and then spent his 5th year at Hofstra.

From Bradford’s senior year at Gaithersburg HS:

Very selective too with an acceptance rate of 27%. $350 million endowment probably helps out many students with the exorbitant tuition etc.

Just realized that Bradford is wearing #2 in his commitment tweet. That’s Bailey’s number per the most current roster. Do see that Bradford wore #3 at both LCS and Gaithersburg HS.

Good piece about Bradford:

If Bradford is half as good as another recent player we landed from the DMV I will be extremely happy.

Jon Davis was a pretty good unheralded player we picked up late. Reminds me of him a bit. Looks like Ben has a better jumper though
