Someone from staff at the U19 practices to watch Josh O. Hopefully, it's CJP getting in Cal's ear to put Josh O on the team.

Man, THAT is the type of finishing that I've been waiting for with Okogie. You start finishing that like that, all it takes is one posterized defender before guys start backing off once you get to the rim. No one wants to be the victim of someone else's highlights.

Looks like Okogie is working on a floater (heck yeah!), and a short pull up. He's also working on post moves to take advantage of smaller guards. Apparently he's aware of how easily he gets to the basket but also of how many easy layups he also misses.

(For those that attended GT...Josh elected to take Calc this summer. Pray for him...)
