Carr's success is being noticed all around the world. CBS Sports called him "one of the most explosive scorers in the country". ESPN wrote that he's "one of the quickest and [most] explosive players in the country, regardless of class." Sports Illustrated wrote, "He has explosive speed, electric ball handling and court vision that could rival Steve Nash's."
A 5'6 140 pound kid scoring 57 points in a game with a 48 inch vertical leap and the ability to dunk is certainly going to get peoples' attention. He was reportedly offered 26 scholarships at the start of his sophomore season. As well, after averaging 40 points a game with the U.S. junior team in the Junior International Tournament in Italy he was offered $750,000 to leave school and go play professionally for the Italian team Lottomatica Roma. He has decided he will graduate high school (this is his final year) and he has verbally commited to playing for Seton Hall next year. Here are some videos to show just how explosive and talented this young man is.
I watch this kid every game he's crazy good. His passing could definitely improve but his ability to drive and score at his height is ridiculous. Finally this kids getting some public attention, he deserves it
ReplyDeletereminds me of Sebastian Telfair in high school.... Hopefully this kid sticks with college and doesnt try to play in Europe.... Telfair could've been something if he went to college...
ReplyDeleteyeh hes crazy good, but in the nba i feel like he wouldnt be a very effective player. Trying to drive against nba's much better and more agressive centers and power forwards will be close to impossible... at his height at least. If only he had a growth spurt and grew just a few more inches then i could see it.
