Nike Elite 100: Top 30 Francis Okoro was the best of the bigs

Posted Jul 2, 2017
Each year, the Nike Elite 100 spotlights some of the top rising sophomore and junior talent in America. Top 30 prospect Francis Okoro showed he was among the best of the bigs in attendance. Powerfully built with a 7-foot-3 wing span, Okoro was quick off the floor and played above the rim in traffic. He rebounds, runs pretty well and looks to be a good 12-15 foot jump shooter.
