We were on to something when we introduced the world to Aquille Carr on the cover of Dime #65. Now, he’s a junior, and he’s committed to Seton Hall. But he’s still only 5-6, and recently our friends at HoopMixtape caught him smashing on the break on some poor fool. The best part is our dude ran out onto the court in the middle of the game to give the Crime Stopper dap, and I’m pretty sure this is the same guy who kept turning up on all of Carr’s videos from last year.

This play is pretty wild. The description on the video says it’s from a game in Vinita, Oakland last month; Jake Bullard of the Vinita Hornets races the length of the floor to catch an incredible alley oop as time expires.
Just as impressive as the sprint, catch and dunk is his teammate’s Grant Hill-like length-of-the-court perfect pass. MORE >

Uh-oh. 7-5 California high school center Mamadou Ndiaye is not only the tallest player in high school basketball (we assume), but he can also actually sort of play. That’s a frightening prospect, considering most young guys this size can barely walk, let alone play ball.
Check out these highlights of Mamadou getting 30 in a recent game for Brethren Christian High School. No, he’s not Ralph Sampson, but he’s still pretty frightening for the high school level: MORE >

The Florida Gators have a good one coming into the mix in 6-0 Class of 2013 point guard Kasey Hill (Montverde Academy, Fla.). Lanky, smooth, and a killer when he’s in Attack Mode, he’ll be the next in a long line of Gator guards who make life absolutely miserable for opponents.
Check out this mixtape we just found of Kasey murdering competition in Florida’s high school ranks over the last few weeks alone: MORE >
