Here are some recaps of the talent filled days that the Michigan Invitational featured this previous weekend.
V.J. King 6’6″ 180 lbs (King James Shooting Stars 17u)- One of the most talented freshmen in the country. The long athletic wing showed the ability to dominate in just about every phase on the offensive side of the ball. Whether it be getting to the rim or hitting the perimeter jump shot, V.J. is a force to be reckoned with. Already possess offers from the likes of Big Ten schools.
A.J. Harris 5’8″ 145 lbs (King James Shooting Stars 17u)- The smallest player on the court is no short of talent. The 5’8″ point guard featured a variety of moves one would expect of a bigger guard. A.J. has tremendous court vision and passing ability. But defenders must be honest because he can score the ball with the best of them. Mid major offers as of now but those will turn to higher as the aau season continues.
Darrell Davis 6’3″ 170 lbs (Reach Legends 17u)- Darrell will improve his game so much over this summer. Davis is improving on the jump shot, but a strength is his raw scoring ability. Davis will be no doubt by the end of the summer of the state’s elite combo guards.
Aaron Foster-Smith 6’7″ 215 lbs (Michigan Warriors 17u)- An explosive, tough forward, Foster-Smith has a variety of skills that one would not expect from a post player. Aaron rebounds, is athletic, scores in the paint, and more surprisingly, runs the break with the ball in his hands like he is a point guard. Many high major schools are predicted to keep an eye or two on him.
Paris Bass 6’8″ (Michigan Warriors 17u)- The long, versatile wing averaged over 20 points a game during his senior season, but is still eligible to participate in aau games. Bass has a nice face-up jump shot that has range to three point land. Rebounds, passes and scores. Just plain and simple, can do it all.
