Let's see him at the Mickey Dees game!

It was late when I posted the above post last night. I want to add that Sadiq seems like a real nice person. He helped out the Team United 16 yr old team by supporting the players, sitting on the bench offering verbal support and getting the court players water when they came off at timeouts and while they were in huddles. The 16yr old game was a good two hours plus before his own 17yr old team were scheduled to play. He seemed to be keenly involved.Saw Sadiq White play tonight at the Peach Jam against Niguel James, London Jeminson and others’ team.
He is an exceptional athlete who has a lot of skills (leaping, defense, offense, passing, speed, scoring). His team lost tonight. His teammates had a difficult time tonight getting him the ball in a position to score.
When he did score, he looked very smooth and polished. I believe with his reflexes and speed that he can guard almost every position (not sure about guarding speedy little point guards). He hustled up and down the court on almost every play. He played tough defense on the other teams 3pt shooting forwards But when he was switched to center, the forwards he had guarded just tore his replacements apart with three point shots.
We will be very happy that he is coming to Syracuse to play college ball. At this time, i see him as a 2 year, possibly more player at Syracuse. His game is different but complimentary to Donavon Freeman’s game.

He is a slender built player along the lines of a Cole Swider Vice the size of a mature Carmelo Anthony statute. He looks small compared to Carmelo Anthony in the picture shown in posts from the Peach Jam.
You are right.His comp ain’t Melo.
He’s more a Hak / Jerami type - long, wiry, explosive.
Here’s hoping he develops like they did.
Swipe for video…
God if he develops the jump shot of fair….Its just one clip and it’s unfair to compare to an Orange great but this video just reminds me so much of CJ Fair
