6'3" 180 lb PG Christian 'Lil Pops' Popoola received an Aztec offer tonight! www.verbalcommits.com/players/christian-popoola-jr-nvChristian Popoola Jr., a top 50 high school basketball recruit for the class of 2017, moved to Utah from LV to play for the Lone Peak UT Team. Popoola Jr., a 6-foot-3 180-pound sophomore, is a powerful left-handed guard who already holds offers from UNLV, New Mexico and USC. His dad, Christian Popoola Sr. — who played for the 1999, 2000 UNLV basketball teams, is involved in working with the top programs around the country as a basketball scout. He said this involvement gave him the chance to learn more about Lone Peak, and after learning about their basketball program, he was sold. Lone Peak has been a BYU pipeline for the last 5 seasons. |

Here's a mix of the Adidas Gauntlet 4/30. Lil Pops can break down a defense, find the open man, hit a three and finish strong at the rim. BTW - USC also has offered. (TY Tony Bland.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nyk2RfP0lc |

The 6’4 185Ibs point guard from Lone Peak High School had a game-high 25 points, scoring 8 of 19 field goal attempts and connecting 3 of 6 baskets from behind the arc for the Pan Aferican team in the Nike Global Challange. Lil Pops dished out 3 assists in 30 minutes, he also grabbed 6 rebounds along with 2 steals in the final win vs China.
Lil Pops can play, he flew under the radar in July playing for the Pan African team and winning the tournament MVP award. Solid player for a 6'4 lefty PG.

Would love to have a PG like Lil Pops come to the Mesa in 2017. Take it to the hoop and #EAT. Ok, just watch the film, that's what I am talking about.

BTW late in Sept, he tweeted out that Oklahoma, Arizona St, Colorado and Stanford were at to scout him, as well. This kid is not an under the radar player. Very high profile in the Western States.
