Ira Lee heading back down south?
Jack Pollon: "Ira lee back to so. Cal.??.... Maybe crossroads in santa monica"
Plus:
"Top 5 big man recruit Ira Lee has shoulder surgery, out 2-3 months" -- USA TODAY High School Sports (dated August 24)
He left Sierra Canyon High in early January of this year and enrolled at Justin Sienna and Pacific Prep. He didn't play at Sierra Canyon as a junior due to a shoulder injury.

Good feature on international talents
"NBA's 'international' presence on the rise as basketball keeps growing globally" -- Ethan Skolnick
An excerpt: "...But teams clearly haven't been scared off by failed high picks like Darko Milicic and Nikoloz Tskitishvili. Philo deems those situational anomalies -- that Milicic was drafted to the wrong place (a contending Detroit team) and Tskitishvili was probably taken too high for his skill set. He said that internationally scouting needs to shift to more than just skill evaluation but also "finding out what makes the person tick internally," with an emphasis on their influences and individuality. When Philo first started scouting, Nelson told him to embrace the unique culture of every country he visited, because that was the only way to understand its players and how they think. "The French think differently than the Serbians, the French think differently from the Danish, the Swedish think differently from the Croatians," Philo said. "You still see the same [NBA] teams making the mistakes internationally and the same teams doing well internationally, and I think that the different is some teams understand the culture..."
One would think actual due diligence or a change to such would be the norm considering the millions it costs to sign a high draft pick.

"What College Coaches Look For"
Coach Bob Walsh's latest is an article he came across in the New York Times.
Surprise, surprise, whiny behaviour, prima donna-ism, parents who don't understand their appropriate role, tardyism, matador defensive effort and the like don't seem to be listed nor is it likely such will be gaining any traction.

Love it or hate it, more on Delly
"Matthew Dellavedova brings Larry O'Brien Trophy to Melbourne ahead of NBA move" -- Roy Ward
One excerpt: "...Then he gained more online fame for shunning Cristal champagne at the Cavaliers' championship party in favour of Corona cans.
During his appearance on Tuesday two young men turned up in Bucks and Cavs singlets and carrying a case of Coronas. They asked Dellavedova to pose with for a photo and he obliged..."
Terrible taste in beer but we'll forgive him for that. There's no 'star' persona regardless of his circumstances and won't be. Gotta love that.

When too far is not enough
"Michigan-Nike Contract: the School Seizes and Sells New Player Data" -- William Wilson
"...Amateurism’s cardinal rule is not ‘no-pay’; it is that the school gets to seize all economic opportunity which might come the player’s way..."
Pretty soon, the Michigan's of this world will be selling off 'student-athlete' genetic data plus exclusive rights to signing their zygote offspring.

Joe Keller keeps on keeping on
"Recruiting starts early, but is it worth the cost?" -- Myron Medcalf
'He's the sixth best fifth-grader in the nation' is something anyone right in their mind should care less about hearing, let alone saying or writing. The only purpose served is making money for a bunch of adults and sports companies.
George Dohrmann:
"If you're looking for an update on Joe Keller from PlayTheirHeartsOut, here is one from ESPN. Spoiler: Same Joe."
"Most guys are trying to make a quick buck," Keller says. "We're trying to change lives. We're not money-driven."
