High School basketball player passes to mentally challenged player on the other team

This is what it’s all about: Great, great, kids!

Titus, the next big recruiting story?

In this NCAA basketball season of underwhelming mediocrity, I’m sure most coaches out there are looking under every rock they can find for that standout player to take them to the next level.  Usually they start in high school by relying on sites like rivals.com.  However, right now, I think they need to be looking a little differently.  Try daycare:

Joe Frazier
