UNC is amping up their interest in 6-11 C Mohamed Bamba from Westtown (PA). The 5th rated junior in the country has the potential to be the top overall prospect in the class, and he's gaining momentum on the four guys ahead of him pretty quickly.
THI has a well-placed source in the Bamba camp, so we're confirming intel and gathering tidbits from them this week. The Harlem (NY) resident is in high demand with offers galore and strong interest from a ton of schools including Kentucky, Duke, Syracuse, North Carolina, Maryland, UConn, Indiana, Wake Forest and more.
I've watched Bamba a lot, and most recently at the USA mini-camp in Colorado Springs just a few months ago.

- Sensationally agile athlete at 6-11
- Covers a lot of ground with his quickness, reactionary reflexes and unbelievable wing-span
- The wing-span is so impressive that I am adding a 2nd bullet point to reiterate it. It's 7-foot-8
- Bamba runs the floor like a wing forward and cleans up around the rim, dunking anything he can near the hoop
- He has a nice face up jumper, and is particularly accurate in the 10-15 foot range
- One of the fastest big men we've seen in a while.
