Why is this still Aztec's Recruiting? Skylar Spencer is not a recruit... He's an Aztec! It is all about the Subject and tone of the post. That same article could be linked in a post that was about the Aztecs next season and it would not have been moved. But the subject was about a center playing for a high school. Subject: How much playing time will Skylar Spencer get next year? Post: the Aztecs will be loaded for 2012-2013 but only Skylar... Linked below is an article about Skylar's play.

I wonder what his official height really is. He's been listed as 6'8" for awhile, yet at his age he might still be growing. Even if he hasn't grown taller, what is his wing span? Leonard's wing span is a touch over 7' which is why he's such a good rebounder. I can see Spencer developing into a shot blocker like Malcom Thomas, but a better rebounder.

I'm bullish on the kid - I think his defense could be a nice piece to the team next year in a 10-12 minute role

He might already be close to Malcolm's level at blocking shots... obviously we have to wait and see how his skill/timing translates at the D1 level, but he is considered a prolific shot blocker right now. Skylar has a lot more upside than Malcolm because of his frame. I think their skill sets at this age are similar, just that Skylar is rumored to be a legit 6;9"-6;10" guy - Malcolm measured in at something like 6'7 3/4" during the official NBA pre-draft workouts. Skylar seems to have the body type that will fill out more, to where he could be an athletic 6'10" 250 guy - 3 or 4 years from now. I wonder what his official height really is. He's been listed as 6'8" for awhile, yet at his age he might still be growing. Even if he hasn't grown taller, what is his wing span?

He is 6'9 right now. Straight from Skylar himself.

Official measurements always seem to be a bit shorter than what guys quote. But if he's a legit 6'9...he'll be 1 and done.

What is Skylar's calling card? Blocks? Rebounds? Defense? Scoring?
