Detroit Cass Tech rising senior Mike Laster has seen his recruiting gain more attention during the July Live Period. Laster, a 6’4″ wing and shooting guard, played for the Reach Legends AAU team, traveling to some of nation’s prestigious grassroots basketball tournaments. And it was at the Las Vegas Fab 48 where Mike received his first division one offer coming from the Falcons of Bowling Green.
“It feels good that they want me to come play with them” Laster said on the Bowling Green offer. “Its location and how close it is to home” is what Mikes likes about the school.
Laster has emerged as a much more dependable offensive player in the Summer compared to his junior high school season at Cass Tech. He has the rare mid-range jumper that is a forgotten art these days and can still shoot from three-point land, to go along with nice size, length, and athleticism for a division one wing prospect. He has also added aggressiveness and playmaking ability to his game, with improving ball handling and defensive skills.
Mike is also being recruited Southern Illinois, Youngstown State, Cleveland State, Bucknell, Northeastern and plans to take visits to Florida Atlantic and IPFW. Laster said he wants “A good program that develops it’s players well.” And “Somewhere where I’ll be in a good situation.
