Top 5 High School Players with NBA Family Ties
Posted Sep 24, 2010
James McAdoo, Norfolk Christian (VA), 2011, is following in the footsteps of his uncle, former NBA and North Carolina great Bob McAdoo. A 6-8 forward, James is so good that rumors began to pop up this summer that he would graduate high school early and enroll at UNC this year to help the Tar Heels’ transfer- and NBA Draft-depleted front line. But James is staying in Norfolk to enjoy his senior year, which is bad news for everybody on his team’s schedule.
