Andrew Wiggins: Basketball's best amateur?
Posted Oct 25, 2012
Inside a cramped, dilapidated community center hidden at the end of a dark parking lot, Andrew Wiggins starts bouncing a basketball. Children scramble, and uninterested adults chatter about the night's presidential debate and how one-time phenom O.J. Mayo built his rep here. They don't know that North Carolina Coach Roy Williams is a day away from boarding a private plane just to meet with Wiggins. He is being recruited by Kentucky and Florida State, his parents' alma mater, North Carolina visited Tuesday, and Ohio State and Kansas are scheduled to visit this week as well.
