Title: Alex Egbuonu
Post by: tower912 on November 03, 2026, 01:11:25 PM
Freshman year Joplin with some freshman year Kam Jones mixed in.  Conscience free gunner.   But, geez, talk about a Big East ready body.  Learn your defensive assignments, young man.

Yeah the defense has a ways to go..........but you can see the tools.

Johnston could be a great defender.......he has all the tools.

Reminds me of a basketball version of late-'60s/early-'70s baseball player Walt "No-Neck" Williams.

Great! You and muwarriors69 have teamed up to focus on his neck. So two guys have taken over Herman's obsession.  ;D  Don't forget to tell us about pogo stick abilities.

Alex looks so slow for some reason. Something about the black shoes and high white socks but he just seems to lumber around while actually getting to spots. He's definitely the on the Joplin trajectory but he could be further along. Love that he doesn't need to add any muscle but he'll need to get the footspeed up big time to play adequate defense.

The microwave offense off the bench is great. I'm also pretty high on Ethan for his defense and switchability. With 3 solid classes in a row, Shaka's recruiting is definitely humming right now (especially compared to the Tre/Al/Zaide class)

Agreed. If he was any quicker though he'd be a top 10 recruit with Zion comparisons.
maybe a tad hyperbolic I suppose
