247sports.com/Article/Jayson-Tatum-Thon-Maker-standout-at-Nike-EYBL-129145As for Maker, the 7-footer originally from Sudan and now at Martinsville (Va.) Carlisle School certainly was an eye catch with his play for the 17U Boo Williams team. He runs the floor extremely well and can attack the basket with the dribble from the high post. He also plays with energy around the rim. The concern about his game is that he doesn't have the quickest reaction to the basketball and doesn't have the best hands. It is vital that he improve in these two areas if he is ever to take full advantage of his other abilities. On the recruiting front, Arizona is recruiting him the hardest followed by Georgetown, Virginia and Memphis. Florida State and North Carolina are also involved.

Fantastic, obviously we're on a few bigs in the next coming years. Ideally, Robinsom for '14, Stone for '15 and Maker for '16.

I like seeing a new crop of 7 footers coming through CBB. Has been lacking recently.

hon Maker certainly passes the eye-test. The rising sophomore is a chiseled basketball specimen with a body well ahead of his years. The 7-foot 16 year old just completed his freshman year at the Carlisle School in Martinsville (VA) and never looked out of place on the court with some of the elite players in the country, many two years older than the native of Sudan who has spent the majority of his life in Australia before coming to the U.S. in 2011. I can’t remember seeing such a physical specimen for a young age. Maker possesses an intimidating wing span, despite a thin frame he is more than willing to bang in the post, but as he continues to mature physcially he will only get stronger…and better. Still raw offensively as he has only been playing oprganized basketball a few years after mainly being a soccer player down under. College coaches are drooling over his potential. “MARYLAND, GEORGETOWN, KANSAS, and a few others,” said Maker of his recruitment, quickly adding that he was not currently too involved in the recruiting process as things are very early in the process. He mentioned his guardian, Edward Smith, knew all of the schools in the process. A recent Zagsblog article on Maker also mentioned KENTUCKY showing interest and offers from ARIZONA, LSU, MEMPHIS, MIAMI, NORTH CAROLINA STATE, OHIO STATE and VIRGINIA in addition to the trio Maker mentioned himself.
