WOW. Xavier Rathan Mayes (Huntington Prep/Scarborough, Ontario) resurrected the Shammgod last night against Teays Valley Christian (Teays Valley, West Virginia), breaking down his man right before dishing out a no-look dime to 6-9, 210-pound Moses Kingsley, who throws it on a defenders head.
Rathan-Mayes, a 6-3, 180-pound Florida State commit scored more points than the other team combined, dropping 55 points and seven assists in an easy 121-50 victory.
Watch video of the move here – you can see that Andrew Wiggins is impressed: MORE >
