Thanks for the info jurkin. I split this out of the other thread and moved it to the recruiting forum. I'll gather his profiles and add them to your post.

Couldn't find much video yet, so this will have to do for now.

Looks like he plays like a really big guard. Didn't see any post play in the tape.

VICTOR OLADIPO DOING WHAT HE DOES BEST... GOING TO WORK:

 

"...rising junior wing Lamar Stevens, who is considered to be one of the top two or three players locally in his class. He's rated 63rd overall in the class of 2016 by 247Sports.

At his size, Stevens is a skilled offensive player capable of scoring at all three levels on the court. He has a strong body, a first step that allows him to get to the rim at will, and the ability to finish with - and seek out - contact. He also has the ability to handle the ball on the break and distribute the ball... He's a smart kid with good grades and an IQ that carries over to the basketball court.

And for at least this week, the 6-foot-6 205 pounder was able to be drawn away from Philadelphia - choosing to play at DeMatha's Ty Lawson-Victor Oladipo camp over the Reebok Breakout Classic held at Philadelphia University. Stevens got off to a slow start, but finished the camp strong on the final day."

The 6-7 2015 pound small forward out of Haverford, Pennsylvania, has established himself as a high major recruit that is loaded with potential.  With his above average size for his position and his extreme athletic ability, he is a match up nightmare.  He can attack the basket or post up on smaller defenders, and he also does not have a problem with draining the three ball.  Stevens also takes pride in his defense where he can use his length to disrupt the passing lane and make it tough for shooters to hit shots over him.

 

Stevens claims offers from Villanova, Eastern Carolina, La Salle, Temple, Penn State, St. Joseph’s, Rhode Island, and Indiana.  He also is being recruited by Miami, Rutgers, Maryland, Stanford, and Syracuse.  

 

When asked which offers stand out to him, he replied, “Indiana & Villanova.”

 

Stevens had a lot of great things to say about the Hoosiers, “It’s a big time school that’s constantly good and puts players that I think are similar to me in the NBA.  I think Indiana will help me reach my ultimate goal to get to the NBA.”

 

He also made it clear he is not ready to name a favorite yet at this point, “I don’t really have a front runner yet.  I want to take some visits before I call a school my leader.”

According to his responses on Twitter, it seems like he had a great time!  posted a photo from behind the bench and was sitting right behind Hoetzel and Uncle Tim.

I liked that part about TW.  Hope all that work translates to the court this season.  Stevens seems like a smart kid.  I like what I see from him so far.

Haverford School (PA) 2016 wing Lamar Stevens will punish you into submission with his game. Relentless going to the rim. #SlamDunkDE

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Some nice work the past 2 days at the Slam Dunk to the Beach tournament. Sounds like this kid crashes the boards pretty good to. :good: Coach Martin watched.
