Samardo Under Classman
Samardo averaged 10.8 points last
year while playing on a team full of
Division I recruits but still
managed to validate his rep as a big
time prospect. Samuels is a physical
marvel who finishes in traffic with
purpose. The 6-foot-8, 240-pound
rising junior relies on his immense
athleticism at this stage, but his
skills are coming along rapidly. He
has the chance to be special. He is
currently ranked number 7 overall in
the class of 2008 and number 3 in
the class of 2008 among centers.
