Not sure a HS kid is the way to go. Most take time to adjust, and with our already young set of guards, coupled with the in-state guards we'll be chasing in future classes, I'd rather find a JUCO that is a little safer bet to be ready immediately.
This sounds like exactly the type of kid Kruger wants. It seems that he's looking for interchangeable pieces, and this kid fits with Buddy, Hornbeak, and Cousins pretty well.

Me, too. We have really been burned on the Juco players who signed in the late period the last few years. I would rather take a chance on a high school kid with five to play four and hope we get another sleeper like Buddy Hield.
That said, my criteria for the guard we need gives our coaches a little wiggle room: If he can walk and chew gum at the same time and shoot 40% or better from three, sign him up!
