Reebok Breakout Challenge Day Two: Josh Newkirk
Posted Jul 9, 2011
Other Thursday breakout Challenge standouts: Josh Newkirk, PG- Newkirk long ago established himself as one of the top athletes at the point guard position in the class of 2013. The four-star was quiet on Wednesday but came to play on Thursday. He pushes the issue in transition, gets to the rim when he wants and is able to finish through contact. Next, he needs to refine his overall game and develop a little bit softer touch but it's clear that he's a high-major prospect.
