Word On The Street: Free Agency In Full Effect


A lot of things are going on around the AAU world right now. So we decided to hit a couple of our sources and bring you another “Word On The Street”. Remember most of this information is from reliable sources including those directly involved.

Is Team Takeover Really Taking Over?

Team Takeover 12U finished #5 in the country and has reloaded in a big way. They acquired Chris Lykes who reclassified into the Class of 2017 but also snatched up former Mr. Memorial Day Andre Boykin and Raine McKeithon from Maryland Panthers. When you throw in top point guard Aaron Thompson and rising stud DJ Mitchell things could get scary.


Where will Nowell land?

One of the big off season stories is the movement of Markquis Nowell. After leaving the Gauchos the high scoring guard was rumored to have been heading to Riverside then suddenly newly formed Team IZOD 12U. Is he really coming over to NJ? We will keep you posted as this story develops.



JJ Watson on The Move?

After spending one successful year with the CB Spiders it seems that combo guard JJ Watson has decided to seek another squad. Rumors have him looking to hook up with NC Rising Prospects or newly formed Team Felton 13U. He would be a huge pickup for either squad because this kid can go.
