Twenty eight college players from around the country and 32 of the top high school prospects in the 2020 and 2021 class received invitations to the three-day camp, which is taking place at the Mamba Sports Academy, a training facility founded by former Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant.
I was there yesterday. Thought the two best incoming freshmen in attendance during yesterday’s scrimmage portion were Cole Anthony and Kahlil Whitney. The two best upperclassmen were Obi Toppin and probably Udoka Azubuike. Doke is trimmed down, looks great as a PnR rim runner.

Among the college stars invited to the academy are four who made a recent NCAA.com list of the top 25 players in college basketball in the 2019-20 season: Gonzaga’s Killian Tillie; Kansas’ Udoka Azubuike; North Carolina’s Cole Anthony; and Michigan State’s Cassius Winston.

Toppin and the other players will showcase their games in drills and 5-on-5 games in front of college coaches, media and NBA scouts.
Toppin’s uncle, Victor Monaros, accompanied him to the camp and has shared video of Toppin on Twitter and Instagram.
