I'm not sure anyone knows. I just saw a couple days ago we offered him. It appears he's gotten several big offers very recently. Dude looks like an absolute freak though.

Those are the best like Jabari Parker who had a similar growth spurt. Develop guard skills and then boom you're 7 inches taller.

Where are you seeing that? Looking on twitter and don't see any mention of it. Seems weird that someone would shut down recruitment right as its heating up.

I'm not seeing it either.

But, he looks like he was created in a lab to play for Nate Oats. 6'10" point forward that played guard most of his career.

Posts from 247's Eric Bossi on Leonard:

quote:

I remember seeing him some at Wasatch Academy during the 2019-20 season. He was a lightly used reserve who was 6'7" or so. He was an athletic kid, and looked the part but it was hard to get much evaluation considering he was probably the 8th or 9th option on the team and that was the year everything got shut down due to Covid.

Assuming he is the same player I'm remembering, he's been off the radar for two years, would have had to have had a serious growth spurt to get to 6-foot-10 and it will be interesting to see what level of comp he's playing. He could very well be awesome, he may very well be a dude who is just blowing up because there's not really anybody else left.

Gonna have to do some digging and can't just throw somebody into the rankings because he's putting up seemingly crazy numbers against unknown Canadian competition.

Seeing what i can find out about him, but he's pretty unknown. As I posted above, we had very limited exposure to him two seasons ago and he's been totally off the radar since then.

I love how Oats finds these long dudes with guard skills so consistently and seems to get in on them before anyone else.

And if our guys think he can play in our system, the guy can play in our system.

Yeah, especially considering some of the offers he apparently has. It could be a situation where he's afraid of missing the boat though considering it's all hitting him like a month before the early period ends.

His Instagram video thingy (I'm old) does have today's date, 5:00pm, and a location at the end of it, and is set to some "coming home" crap music. So, maybe it's true.
