Man, that opening dunk is impressive but he pulls out the step back jumper and a dream shake. He's got a lot of tools in the tool box.

He needs to get a few players signed to his league. He's hoping they won't see the sweatshop fine print in the contract that requires them to make shoes after practice.
Good to see big George at #3.

Edit* also, apparently George's Corliss plays THT's Simeon in the city's second round tonight.

Should be a blow out, but curious to see how George plays against the Big Dogs of Chicago. Hope he can continue with the same output
This probably got posted elsewhere, but it should be in here too.
You have to do a little digging but it comes via the Memphis rivals guy. Do with it what you will.

So what's the connection?

Not even saying this because of the ISU connection but I just straight up don’t believe this. Simons is pretty likely to be NBA bound in my eyes, O’Neal just committed to UCLA & I think he wants to stay out west. Harris makes sense for obvious reasons I’ll admit. Is there any connection of THT w/Penny?
Edit: Did a little digging and apparently Hardaways son played with Hardaway at IMG plus I somehow forgot about the Shaq & Penny connection from Orlando. So maybe those are more realistic than I thought. But THT seems really random here.

I think he attended one of his camps at one point but i'm not really sure there is one. Maybe Simeon, Memphis? The sources seem really sketchy so idk what to think. If not for the Mcneill situation, this wouldn't worry me, but with what happened there, I can't help but adjust my nut cup.
Don't blame ya on the McNeill part.
I agree. Sounds like a bit of a stretch. I'm sure Shaq and Penny were good homies in Orlando and all, but baby Shaq to Memphis? I have a hard time believing that.
Fool Prohm once, shame on you.
Fool Prohm twice, block any school suspected of tampering.

"Simeon was expected to be one of the best teams in the state this season, but it has been even better than that. Smith thinks it could be the best team he’s ever coached.
“It’s been a little bit different with Talen, just the things I’ve allowed him to do offensively,” Smith said. “He’s had more freedom than [Rose or Parker].”"
Not related to Penny Hardaway gossip, but THT's coach at Simeon had that to say, which is saying something. Pulled from the Chicago Sun-Times player of the year article.

Can't "block" after releasing from NLI, but you could choose not to release the NLI. This whole business is probably a non-issue. I don't think he'd pull a McNeill for a coach he camped with once.
THT seems like a humble kid that values loyalty. Prohm has been as loyal as they come.
I don’t think he attended a camp but he did play against the team Penny coaches in the Penny Hardaway Hoopfest this year. That’s all I could find for a connection. Doesn’t seem like enough to flip for but who knows I guess...
Penny will also fill out his staff with Larry Brown, John Wooden and Jesus.
