One On One Feat. Raekwon "Grande" Long (QCAA)


Standing 6’9 Raekwon Long will command attention if he was on any high school team in America. Long is the center for QCAA from North Carolina. We got a chance to watch him twice this year and I was very impressed with the improvement in his game. I got a chance to talk to Raekwon “Grande” Long at the CB Spiders Tournament and here’s our One on One.
