1. It was a fun event (dragged a little), but you can’t really tell too much about the team from it, especially shooting. Basically ran some warm up drills, then some fan friendly events. Maybe a couple of individual observations, though.
2. Kasey Wilson is an effortless leaper, and already has a D-I body (as do Rod Days and Wayne Martin). He won the dunk contest by slamming it home over a seated Keith Clanton, winning the WWE-esque belt.
3. The timeout/halftime announcer from 2 seasons ago is back. No comment.
4. Jeff Jordan inherited his father’s leaping ability more than Marcus did.
5. Let’s just say that David Stern is a micro-managing, meddling jerk!
6. Isaiah Sykes has shorn his dreads.
7. Celebrity sightings ? JMY, David Diakite, UCF HOFer Mike Clark and the Clarkettes, and Keith Tribble (!). And because it’s becoming routine, I had to remember to add MJ.
8. I like the t-shirts they handed out. UKnight Madness logo on the front, men’s & women’s home schedules on the back.
9. Play of the night #1 - AJ (no longer Small with AJ Tyler’s graduation) hits a turnaround, final money ball 3 from behind the basket (assist by KT) to win the 3-Point Championship, complete with WWE-esque belt.
10. Among the list of All-County Athlete honorees inscribed upon the walls of the Liberty Middle School gymnasium are Keith Clanton (Boys Basketball) and - Casey Anthony (Girls Volleyball).
11. 1800-2000 fans there tonight, including the pep band and the Spirit Squad. The Knight Moves squad is already in mid-season form, and there’ll be a lot of fan favorites!!
12. Play of the night #2 - Dwight McCombs hits a shot from half-court to win the 4-ball contest by 1-second (no WWE-esque belt). If he takes a shot outside of 10 feet during the regular season Donnie will have his butt!
13. Josh Crittle is trimmer and toned. Wayne Martin shows no sign of his Achilles injury. AJ does look heftier. Keith looks more fit.
14. It’s BASKETBALL season!!
