I caught the better part of Tuesday's action at Cal State Dominguez Hills during the Week 1 (Session 1) of the West Coast All-Star Basketball Camp.
My thoughts:
+As expected, the talent level (at least as pertaining to Division I programs) isn't strong and will be much better during Week II (Friday-Monday).
+Shelton Boykin (a 6-4+ senior at Poly High), Robert Upshaw (a 6-10 soph-to-be at Edison in Fresno), Byron Wesley (a 6-3 junior-to-be at Cajon who may be relocating), Spencer Dinwiddie (a 6-2 junior-to-be at Taft), Ryan Anderson (a 6-6 junior at Poly) and Eli Mara (a 6-4 senior from Surrey, British Columbia) were the best prospects I saw a lot of Tuesday.
I'll be back Thursday for the camp all-star games, which get under way at 10:20 a.m. (frosh/soph) and wrapping up with the noon "Best of the Best" contest.
Some of the college coaches I saw/talked to Tuesday: Bob Burton (head honcho at Cal State Fullerton), Jason Levy (Loyola Marymount), Rod Palmer (Long Beach State), Scott Garson (UCLA), Reggie Geary (SMU), Gib Arnold (USC), Senque Carey (Fresno State) and Phil Cullen (Grand Canyon College).
