To say that trends in amateur basketball are in a state of flux is a serious understatement. Here is a story that goes against all recent logic:
According to an ESPN story posted today,
"Enes Kanter, a 6-foot-10 post player widely considered the top European prospect, will enroll at Findlay Prep on Wednesday."

Here is a kid that actually played in the Euroleague but is choosing to come to the US to a prep school originally funded by a UNLV booster (Cliff Findlay) and then to potentially play US college basketball.
What happened to the idea of players developing better fundamentals and pro style games in the year-round coaching climate of Europe?
I am officially confused.
Do you think we've reached out to Kanter yet? Is he invited to the Elite Camp? (I am half kidding/half serious)
