There is no doubt that LeBron James is the best basketball player in the world right now. And with Kobe Bryant going down recently many of us wonder how long his reign of dominance will last.
Will we have to wait another decade to see the next superstar player who command the same respect as MJ or Wilt? Or is the next big thing in the making just right around the corner in high school?
Meet 14-year-old Seventh Woods out of Hammond High School in South Carolina. He can shoot, he can dribble and he can dunk… a lot. He literally looks like a man against boys and some people would go as far as to argue that he could compete in the league today.
After watching this quick highlight reel of some of his freshman-year highlights, there should be no doubt in your mind who the next big thing is.
How the hell are high school kids this athletic?! We’ve seen some impressive high school basketball prospects in the past but this kids is really special.
He as all of the athletic ability in the world and is of the same mold as similar genetic freaks, Blake Griffin and Russell Westbrook. The evolution of professional athlete is amazing. With modern medicine and training, we are seeing some truly unbelievable results.
It’s hard to imagine that this kids has three more years of high school, plus a year of college before he can go to the league. He is going to get such a ridiculous amount of ass on the way. it’s crazy.
His recruitment should be interesting too as schools will surely go hard to sign this beast. Tune in a couple years from now when he’s driving his Mercedes G-Wagon to class. He would just be following in the footsteps of the king.
