I see a little Darren Brooks in his offense style. Can score anywhere on the floor. Strength wise, lets hope he can continue to get stronger. He got a big body for a guard and really handles the ball well. Welcome aboard !!
I like the comparison - good call.
It looks to me like this kid has more ability to create space for his jump shot than DB had, but they look very similar driving lanes and attacking the rim.
--Insert something witty here--
Nice!
Plays like a bully: big, strong guard that knows how to use his body, but not necessarily an above-the-rim sort of athleticism. Watching him made me think of D.J. Balentine?
Yeah, a bull dog/Saluki. Really nice skill set. Maybe not the most athletic (and not even sure of that observation), but I'd take him any day. Very good get. Well done and congrats to staff!
Welcome to SIU Steven!
March on triumphantly!
Another thing I like about what the highlights show of this kid is it looks like he's another one that doesn't get sped up. Even when he's creating, he always looks calm and under control. He seems to have the mentality and tools it takes to be a big-time player. Really looking forward to seeing what he can do.

Additionally, this young man hasn't been in the US for too long, relatively speaking. What you see here is just this tip of the iceberg in my opinion with regards to his potential ceiling once this coaching staff works with him. With this young man's work ethic, big things could indeed be coming.
Let's land D'Avanzo today!
Drake F just announced he is transferring.... Not sure that is a good sign for us.
welcome to the site....
scroll back a few pages, someone had posted a list, also verbalcommits.com is a decent source
after the last week or so though, its obvious no one really knows whats going to happen
Awesome. Thanks for the info. Yeah I’m like everyone else hearing a few names and just waiting. I appreciate it.
I’m relatively new to this site...Who else do we have out there that we have made offers to or are really interested in?
Welcome to the site !!!! Check out page 68 of this thread.
Anyone seen Anthony D'Avanzo play? How much of a help in the front court would he be?

He's got a nice recruiting video on his Twitter which shows him playing extremely well at UofI:

I am guessing DePaul but that is only a guess
