Seventh is unreal. He continues to rise when he jumps.  Great handle.  Easily a future pro and probably the most deserving of the "next LeBron/Jordan" label out of all of the HS mixtapes I've seen.

WOW. That is one hell of a mixtape for a HS freshman. Probably the most entertaining one I've seen since Andrew Wiggins, and Woods still has 3 years until he goes to college. Mindblowing.

Kid is ridiculous, has everything you'd want in a ball player.  Obviously athletic, great handle so he can create his own shot, court vision you can't teach that lets him facilitate, heady defensive presence...man alive we very well could have the next coming of Lebron James if he keeps growing!

I lived in Columbia, SC for the last four years, and had heard this kid's name being mentioned when he was in 7th grade, but I never got to see him play. Wow! He actually seems like he could be better than the hype. Crazy to see what he's doing as a freshman. His school, Hammond, is a private school and plays against mostly private schools that aren't known for their athletics. He's gonna destroy kids when he's a junior and senior.

Let's not get too carried away with this kid yet.  I'll be interested in seeing how he does next year against the Junior Varsity competition.  If he is still doing this, then I'll be impressed.

This kid is clearly going to be great, but I wouldn't call him the next LeBron by any means. This mix actually reminds me a lot of John Wall's in HS.

MaxPreps delivers some of his stats for this past season at Woods' school here (LINK).

This confirms that he is listed on the varsity squad, and as a freshman on the varisty squad, he average 19.3 point per game, 4.3 assists per game, 3.5 rebounds per game and has scored 443 points on the season. His individual game stats are on the MaxPreps site.

As for the video, I have to wonder if the O/U on Division I offers will be at 90% of the division. That's incredible.

will be enormous, and the parasites who'd like to get attached to him are undoubtedly already licking their chops and counting their money.

Deadspin hit it right on the head, referring to "his eventual one-year Kentucky career."
