"Edwards likes to use Kevin Durant as an example of what, at the high-school level, Cain is capable of doing from different sports on the court."

Hmmm.....

"But from where Detroit East English Village coach Juan Rickman sits, Cain looks better than ever. Like anyone who sees him play, Rickman is impressed with Cain's raw athletic ability.

"He's stupid athletic; he's silly athletic," Rickman said after scrimmaging Cornerstone last week. "No, listen, he's athletic. As far as explosion and getting off the floor, Jamal is ridiculous."

It says he has reached 6'8.    I am always skeptical of HS heights.

Hmmm....he thinks he's stupid, silly and ridiculous....are you sure he's from an English Village?

Hell, pretty much any height for a basketball player at any level.

Cain #2 and Eke #7 on the Detroit Free Press rankings for High School Basketball players in the state of Michigan.  Note, the list is for all players regardless of class.

Another great article on Jamal Cain recently released by MLive (my apologies if this has been posted elsewhere).

http://www.mlive.com/sports/2017/03/meet_mr_basketball_finalist_ja.html (http://www.mlive.com/sports/2017/03/meet_mr_basketball_finalist_ja.html)

He's a finalist for Michigan's Mr. Basketball

I was not aware of the tragedy his family recently went through with his father - seems to have made him a stronger and more focused person.

Btw, the article has him listed at 6'8" now, which would mean we'll be adding 4 players 6'8" or taller next year.

Got the #2 and #5 seniors in Michigan and looks like we were in the running for #1 (based on Marq hat in front of him).  Who is recruiting Michigan for the Warriors since Wojo is a Baltimore guy?

Posted in the recruiting thread.    But does no harm to read it multiple times.

I think this guy needs to play power forward.

Sounds promising. Looking forward to new class hitting town this summer.

He and Ike have both recently lost parents.    We, as a community, are going to have to be supportive and patient.
