I was sitting around on Firefox looking at my twitter stream and saw Jody Demling was talking about UK Turkish recruit Enes Kanter. Here is an excerpt:
The 240-pound 17-year-old Kanter is considered the top basketball prospect in Turkey. He came to the U.S. last fall and played at Stoneridge Prep in Simi Valley, Calif. He was a member of the Under-16 and Under-18 Turkish National teams.
Kanter had originally committed to Washington but re-opened the process. He's projected as the No. 15 pick in the '11 draft by DraftExpress.com and he's a guy that University of Kentucky fans will likely be hearing a lot about during the next few weeks.
West Coast expert Dinos Trigonis said after watching Kanter in the Fullcourt Press Spring League that he was a "bigger post version of (former North Carolina All-American) Tyler Hansbrough" and "a man playing with the boys at the high school level."
Daniels said he's not the typical European post player:
"Most of those guys are are guys that face-up and like to shoot jump shots," Daniels said. "That's not Enes Kanter. He's a physically tough kid that loves to be on the inside to rebound and bang."

Here is a video on Kanter. Thank you Mr. Demling.
