Quincy Miller is most likely to attend Kentucky. TOSU may have a chance but not much.

Kentucky has certainly been long considered the front runner, but I could see him going elsewhere. Does not appear to be in a rush at all to decide, bright kid that will have a multitude of options.

-----------

Canada has no problem in game 1.. they win 76-52 over Uruguay. Kyle Wiltjer (!!) and Kevin Thomas with 14 points... 2012 6'9" stud Khem Birch with 8 points, 9 boards and 5 blocks.. Myck Kabongo (10 points, 3 boards, 3 assists in 31+ mins), Junior Lomomba (7 pts in 16+ mins) putting in work at guard for Canada... big Sim Bhullar got in for about 10 minutes
 

The U-17 team is the one to watch. Gilchrist (considered the best high school player in the nation regardless of class), McAdoo, Teague, Johnny O'Bryant, Quinn Cook, Wroten and a kid I think is going to end up being really special in Justin Anderson just to name a few.

Brad Beal and Chasson Randle are another couple to watch on that team... the others on the roster are Andre Drummond, Tony Parker and Adonis Thomas... that tourney doesn't get underway until July 2 (through July 11) in Germany, but they've been together for about a week already now.. and are currently in Lithuania training. They cruised pretty easily as a 16U squad in Argentina a year ago.. (nine of this year's U17 are from last year's U16.. Gilchrist, Teague and Anthony Wroten, Jr. are the nice additions)

Revised tipoff time for tonight's USA U18 game is approx... 7:45pm CT.. warming up now.
 


Semifinals tipping off right now (~730pm central Tuesday night)... USA vs. Canada .. winner gets Brazil.
