Lonnie Walker has been on fire during July. Just a couple weeks ago, he went to the Peach Jam and took the event by storm. He came to Vegas with the same mindset and is establishing himself as one of the top perimeter players in the class.
In a third place game with Team Melo, Walker dominated the game from start to finish. The 6-foot-4 wing could not be stepped from getting to the basket all game and spent a lot of time at the charity stripe. He also possesses a pure stroke from deep that makes him a tough matchup and one of the top wings in the country.
“Syracuse, Villanova, Miami, Kentucky, Oregon and a few others are talking to me,” Walker said. “I’m going to try to take a visit to Syracuse next month and maybe Alabama."
PayCal and two assistants showed up to see Walker as did Miami head coach Jim Larranaga and an assistant. Syracuse and Villanova had assistants courtside as well.
