    • Point guard Junior Cadougan (6'0, 190) from Toronto, Ontario, (Committed Marquette) is as good as advertised. He was terrific at getting to the rim off high ball screens and finishing through contact. Also, he showed the ability to read the defense by making the right decision whether that is shooting the jumper if his defender goes under the screen or finding the open man when his penetration is cut off. Cadougan is excellent at being the coach on the floor as he directs his teammates constantly. He is faster with the ball than without and escapes defenders in transition for layups. Has a good midrange game but must be a more consistent 3-point shooter -- although he is accurate enough to always keep the defense honest. He needs to improve his conditioning -- he looked a little heavy. Cadougan has battled a foot injury that noticeably slowed him from being as explosive with the ball during Tuesday's games. That being said, he was still very impressive.

    Myck Kabongo, PG (6-0, 165)
    2011, Toronto/St. Benedict's (N.J.) Kabongo understands time and score situations well for a young player and is great at making a scoring play after the original play breaks down. He will be great at end of clock situations in college. On defense Kabongo was one of the few players I saw get into a stance. He puts excellent pressure on the ball and has great anticipation on or off the ball. Kabongo is rail thin and must get stronger to deal with physical guards.

    Junior Cadougan, 6-0 point guard, Christian Life (TX), 2009: The Canadian floor general just gets it done–he uses his strength to bully smaller guards, finishes determinedly in the paint and keeps them honest from the outside, but most importantly, he wins.

    Congrats to Junior.
    Looks like hes back to being one of the top rated PG prospects in the U.S.

    Myck Kabongo, 6-0 point guard, St. Benedict’s (NJ), 2011: Through Monday’s scrimmages and his first game yesterday, the native of Canada was playing like the best pure point guard here, using his tremendous quickness, handle and court vision to set teammates up for easy buckets.

    Reebok All-American Camp Hype Empty Kabongo is a legit pro prospect

    If he gets some more strength it's a wrap. He is a great ball handler, makes great decisions and can play with anyone. It is up to him which pro league he makes.
