2014 HS - Kingsley Okoroh - 7'1 C

[NT03]

High school : Findlay Prep , Henderson , NV

AAU : Upward Stars

UNT , Clemson & Tennessee are said to be in the mix

rIvals and espn have yet to grade him

Scout has given him 3 * status

Moved to USA about a year ago from England > hoopsfix

At the recent Super 24 , basketballelite , gave him this evaluation >>

Kingsley Okoroh (C, 6’10″, 2014) continues to look like a solid center and prospect, although he still needs to become much more aggressive in the post. Okoroh swatted several shots (I counted 4 in one game) and has good hands

so he is legit 7'1"? or is he 6'10" like it says in the basketballelite evaluation? I'd like to get another big man regardless, but 7'1" would be amazing

Coach @ Findley Prep says he is a legit 7'1

Then that is absolutely wonderful. Since he is 2014 it's a long way off, but it would be fantastic if Benford could snag this kid. Even if he is below average in his development (which since he plays at Findlay Prep, I don't think he can be too below average), you can't teach size, so he'd be a good get.

I announce my commitment to the University of California Berkeley. I'm very excited to be a BEAR !
