Andrew Wiggins stars in Charlotte Hoops Challenge
Posted Nov 24, 2012
Andrew Wiggins started things off with what the fans came to see Friday night: a dunk on the first possession of the game that rattled the rim and set the crowd to roaring in Waddell Language Academy’s gym. “It always motivates me when I see a crowd’s reaction like that,” said Wiggins, the nation’s top high school basketball prospect. Wiggins is in Charlotte with his top-ranked Huntington (W.Va.) Prep team for this weekend’s Charlotte Hoops Challenge.
