Yeah he did. He friggen killed it. He may play himself into a Top 100 ranking like Nix. Right now Sherman is probably about 130 in the rankings.

Check out this kids video on Rivals. Holy smokes! The dude has handles.

WOW, I just watched Sherman's video and I see why he's the top player in Ohio and I'm instantly excited about his commitment! This kid is big and silky smooth. His drop step and spin move are terrific. Very Very Good finisher and yes, he does have ball handling skills on top of it for his size.

Extremely excited!

That video is fun to watch. The talent level will obviously increase in the pros, but he's not even a Senior in high school yet. Great skills.

I was really amazed by the video I saw. When you look at headshots of him, the first image that pops into your mind is "big, gumpy, white guy". However, he is VERY athletic. He moves well with and without the ball (he has ball handling skills more like a wing player than center). He also plays well with his back to the basket. I really liked his versatility. If he can develop a consistent 15 foot jumper to go along with his ball handling and post skills, he will be DYNAMITE.

What a great early find by King Izzo.

And when you combine his size and those skills with the fact that he already CONSISTENTLY produces 20+ points and 17+ rebounds a game...it becomes obvious why this kid was a very good find. He's not some raw big man with all upside and no production like DeShonte Riley.

This kid looks a lot better then I figured. I don't know much about the level of competition in that video but he sure looked good. And that cross over in front of that guard was just plain sick for a kid his size!

GO GREEN!

greenfever · 05-05-2008, 10:45 PM

I was impressed by his handle, composure under pressure, passing, and ability to finish with both hands. He didn't get off the floor real well and like a lot of big kids he let his size do a lot of the work instead of getting himself in position. That will change, he looked tough.

Holy crap ... I just watched that video .. .wow .. . .. he is good

go_disc_golf · 05-06-2008, 11:39 AM

I saw it and I don't have a Rivals subscription. On the Rivals Basketball recruiting main page over where the video plays in the upper right corner, just click on the "launch video player" link, click "basketball recruiting" and then search for "Sherman".

Thanks, found the vid, but it won't play for me.
