From an earlier article by Jones:
Quote:
At no time has there ever been more talk, more hype and more interest around these parts surrounding a boys basketball player who hasn?t even enrolled in a high school.
A 6-foot-7 left-handed, smooth-shooting eighth-grader at Northwood Middle School, Thomas has already generated a significant amount of buzz in Fort Wayne. Lofty comparisons, albeit premature, have been the norm for this kid.
?He has the whole game, the whole package,? said Les Howard, Thomas? coach at Northwood. ?He is maybe the next LeBron James, the next Michael Jordan. He is that good.?
