    Default Isaiah Morton

    Just a high school freshman, but wanted people to get a first look at a player you might see in the future. 1st cousin of Sebastian Telfair.

    Plays for St. Augustine Prep in south jersey (players that came from there are anthony farmar on rutgers, eugene teague who will play for usf next season,and pops mensa bonsu who you guys should know). St. Augustine plays legit competition such as St. Patricks (al harrington,samuel dalembert,dexter strickland who is #16 in 2009 class)

    Here's an article on the st.pats vs. st. augustine showdown

    http://eastside-online.org/2008/02/2...ball-showdown/

    Morton only scored 8 points this game, but averaged 17.1 on the season and led the team. The reason I know who he is from Josh Thompson,also mentioned in the article (6'4" senior headed to Wagner), is one of my best friends that I grew up with. I'll definately be heading down there to check out Morton this summer.

    Just showing some love

    25 ppg/8 apg as a junior this year. Still just 5'8" but looks like a little kid in the face so hopefully he has more to grow.

    Watching him allowed me to see Michael Gilchrist last year when they played against each other. Morton getting interest from Seton Hall, La Salle, St. Joe's, Temple, and Pitt among others. Just giving props to my boy. I've played with him 3 times now and kid is insanely quick.

    This isn't the NBA draft forum though. College is littered with short guys. He won't stay 5'8" either.

    Really? Because the best point guard on the planet is barely 6 feet tall.

    One of my favorite players a few years ago was Drew Lavender. Wasn't he about 5'7"?

    Well, he signed with Marist. But here's some vids of him dunking at 5'7"...

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gx149pDidoA
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dThpE5NFrRw

    scored over 2,000 points in high school

    Marist opens up against Kentucky next year in a televised game though so that should be cool. Their coach is one of Calipari's ex-assistants.

    He was 2 steals and 1 rebound short of a quadruple-double the other night.

    Not an inch. Still 5'7". He had other offers including Seton Hall and Rutgers (not great, but great conference) but from what I hear he wanted to go somewhere he could start immediately.
