He made many all star teams, and was recruited by 6 of the top 10 teams in the country…he had zero stars and wasn’t ranked. Oh, and Juan Dixon and Steve Blake weren’t ranked either. Both won a national championship and both played in the NBA. Steve Blake recently retired from the NBA.

Both Dixon and Blake were ranked recruits in HS. Blake was an all american and one of the tope PGs in the country.
