Joel James out to prove he's more than hype
Posted Jun 21, 2011
Despite standing 6-foot-10 and hovering around the 300-lb. mark, Joel James knows he won’t dominate against other big-time players on size alone. “I have to hustle,” James said. “You can have no talent, and still be a better player than someone else just by hustling.” James, a rising senior from Dwyer High School (Fla.), certainly has talent. For someone so big, he runs the floor and moves around without the ball effectively.
