LeBron James Skills Camp Day Three Updates

Devin Ugland ‏@DevinGOAZCATS    

Offensive board and bucket for Diallo. He never quits on plays. Always sees second chance opportunities. #LBJSkills

Corey Albertson ‏@Corey_Rivals513    

Cheick Diallo comes of the bench for a quick impact. Scores at the rim then alters a shot on first trip each way. Major 2015 talent.

Jerry Meyer ‏@jerrymeyer247   

#34 247Sports/#49 247Composite ranked JaQuan Newton still ranked too low

Evan Daniels ‏@EvanDanielsFOX    

Cheick Diallo is punishing the rim in his final game of camp. The motor is running!

Devin Ugland ‏@DevinGOAZCATS

Isaiah Briscoe is a bruiser. Takes it into the body of the big to eliminate any chance of his shot getting blocked. Strong finisher.

Day two live blog

Jerry Meyer ‏@jerrymeyer247   

JaQuan Newton is tough to contain off dribble

 

Jerry Meyer ‏@jerrymeyer247    

Liking Thomas Bryant more and more. Has a determined edge to his game

Matt Moreno ‏@MattGOAZCATS    

I’m liking the hustle Malachi Richardson has shown so far … no-nonsense kind of prospect

Josh Gershon ‏@JoshGershon    

Nice second half so far for 2015 center Thomas Bryant. He's playing hard, finishing and getting to the line.

Corey Albertson ‏@Corey_Rivals513    

Thomas Bryant putting together a nice half over here. Versatile post score and '15 four-star.

Devin Ugland ‏@DevinGOAZCATS    

Cheick Diallo is one of the best in his class at running the floor. Great hands. Got a dunk there.

Jerry Meyer ‏@jerrymeyer247    

Goodluck Okonoboh forced JaQuan Lyle n2 airball three in one on one situation out top. Okonoboh can move his feet.

Jerry Meyer ‏@jerrymeyer247          

Isaiah Briscoe can absorb a lot of contact and still finish the play

 

Matt Moreno ‏@MattGOAZCATS    

Sometimes it doesn’t work out the way he wants, but you have to appreciate the mentality Isaiah Briscoe plays with on both ends

Josh Gershon ‏@JoshGershon    

2015 SG Isaiah Briscoe switching between scoring and distributing. He has a couple assists, sunk a floater and scored a layup with the foul.

Devin Ugland ‏@DevinGOAZCATS    

2015 Malik Newman has a scary combination of speed, handles and scoring ability.

Matt Moreno ‏@MattGOAZCATS    

Isaiah Briscoe really showing off the vision today at the #LBJSkillsAcademy

Jerry Meyer ‏@jerrymeyer247    

Isaiah Whitehead draining threes off the catch

Scott Sommer ‏@scottsommer21    

2015 G Isaiah Briscoe has been outstanding in this one. Doing just about anything he wants. Such an old school feel to his game

Corey Albertson ‏@Corey_Rivals513    

Longtime fan of Malachi Richardson's. Big two guard that can stretch the floor and score in bunches. 2015 four-star.

Jerry Meyer ‏@jerrymeyer247    

Cliff Alexander getting the better of Thomas Bryant n the lane

Dave Telep ‏@DaveTelep    

The JaQuan Newton of spring/summer > than the Newton during HS season. Found his groove since April IMO
