James Young MVP in Nike Global Challenge

Many think James Young will be the next 2013 commitment to John Calipari and the Kentucky Wildcats and you can see why the defending national champions want the talented guard.

NBA scouts are really high on Young.

[QUOTE]
NBA scout on James Young, who lists Kentucky as his top choice and went off for 23 of his game-high 29 points in the second half of Sunday’s USA Midwest win over Canada in the Nike Global Challenge: “Talented, great in the open floor, good at making plays for other people. He’s a big guard. I think he’s got a real chance because he can play in an up-tempo system, can get in the lane, I think he knows what he wants to do with the ball. He’s got to become a better shooter, but he can get in the lane and make plays. He’s good.”
