Sadiq looked like the best athlete in the game. Kiyan looked like a guy that his teammates looked to, to take over the game offensively.

Athleticism alone doesn’t win games but you have to give Red and the staff credit, this year’s team will be able to compete with anyone in the country in terms of athleticism. That type of roster, even if less skilled, gives you a chance to beat any team you play

Just watched the replay. Anthony had that hot streak with about 9-10 minutes left in the game. But overall, it was a quiet 20+ points, kind of like a Lawrence Moten game.

Saddiq White looked very rangy and athletic. He really competed. Big guys are seldom thrown the ball in these kinds of games, but I thought he looked really good. Somewhere between Jesse Edwards and Chris McCullough, in terms of body type, mobility, etc. He even played a bit of defense, but didn't look like a shot blocker. Definitely a contributor next year.

Sadiq White has blocked almost a shot a game at IMG this year. Considering the league he’s playing in, that probably translates well to ACC play.
 
Nice short interview with Melo during the Knicks game last on MSG. I didn't notice if Kiyan was there with him.

The Iverson Classic took place Saturday -- airing on an obscure streaming platform -- but there are a few YouTube videos from people who attended.

I can only embed one video here.

GAME OF THE YEAR!? Kiyan Anthony vs Darius Acuff was PERSONAL at Iverson Classic



Here are three more videos:

FYI some of the videos don’t have a lot of the players listed in them.

I wonder if Kiyan isn’t legit top 10 in the whole class at this point. Granted that shouldn’t come with expectations as really no one outside a talent like Flagg ever should but I’m just floored how much Kiyan has progressed.

I am not sure he should be top 10 because the Top 6-7 are really good, but Gilbert Arenas said it was a joke that he didn't make the McDonalds game and Arena's kid is ranked 10.

Fair - and maybe the point is top 20 but either way hard pressed to make a list of 20 better kids in his class with how far he has come.

The McDonald’s game is all political. Some here will remember when Morgan Wooten kept Billy Edelin out of the game in 2002. Billy left Wooten’s DeMatha squad and did his senior year at Oak Hill, where he excelled and led them to the mythical HS National Championship. He was one of the best, if not the best, PG’s in the country. Not even a sniff for the Mickey D game. Wooten had a lot of power over that selection process at the time.

Then we had the “Paul Harris doesn’t qualify” snub because he played a 5th year of HS ball. The kid was the only person Chuck Norris was afraid of, and he couldn’t get on that team.

I have a love hate relationship with the Mickey D game.

Also Bronny wasn't all LA city but got into the MCD game.
