Here’s some quotes from the father of Narbonne recruit Byron Moore.
“He’s been going to their camps since he was in the seventh grade. There was something

“It’s been tearing at him even before that. UCLA’s been very good to us. They are a good group of guys.”

Prospect Evaluation
We talked to a coach who watched USC basketball recruit Nikola Vucevic, a 6-10 forward from Stoneridge Prep.
“He has some skills. He needs work. He’s OK. He’s long but not quick,” the coach said.
