Saddened to hear about the passing away of long-time South Carolina grassroots coach Juan Ornelas Sr. Director of the adidas-sponsored South Carolina T.O.P.P.S. program, Juan coached such notable players as Raymond Felton (UNC/NBA) & Jerome Harper (McDees AA). May his memory be eternal

RIP to Brick Oettinger.

Legend in the basketball recruiting space and someone who was always extremely helpful when I got into the business.

Scouting Notebook📓⏩️ Derek Smith Invitational powered by @madehoops

Available ‘24 Quelron House applies a ton of pressure on an opposing defense, both in transition and in the halfcourt.

Dropped 37 points, today.

His ability to push the pace and create off the bounce opened up scoring multi-level scoring opportunities in this one.

Always will be a 🐐 to me. Huge personality and always was a people person. I have so many stories I can tell from a kid it’s unreal. Hopefully his uniform get’s retired by his high school and university sooner than later. Rest up 👑. Legend Felton Spencer.🙏🏿🙏🏿
