Andrew Wiggins grabs title of best amateur player in world by default
Posted Jul 21, 2012
Julius Randle is a beast. He's about 6-foot-8 and likely checks in at around 235 pounds or so. He's big, strong, athletic and just flat-out dominates every forward he goes up against on the summer circuit. But not Andrew Wiggins. Wiggins made Randle look ordinary, as if he was just another Top 100 player. I will confess that I'm a huge Randle fan, but he was outclassed -- in every manner.
