Posted Jun 18, 2013
Harry Giles, arguably the top player in the Class of 2016, has a torn ACL, MCL, and meniscus, according to Kenny Beck of WXII in North Carolina. Giles injured the knee during his second game with the USA U16 team at the FIBA Americas Championship in Uruguay, and Beck quoted him as saying he will come back “way better” than before. The 6-foot-9, 210-pound Giles out of Wesleyan (N.C.) Christian was unable to play as the U16s won the gold medal at the recent FIBA Americas Championship in Uruguay.
