The April evaluation period is all about kids taking an opportunity to excel in front of coaches. In Las Vegas, Atlanta Celtics wing Tim Quarterman did as good a job of doing that as anybody in the event.
A long and thin 6-foot-6 junior from Savannah (Ga.) Johnson, Quarterman played the point, the two and even at small forward and impressed on both ends of the floor.
"I wanted to come out here and show what I could do," said Quarterman. "It feels good to get off to a good start in front of coaches."
Tim Quarterman had the attention of several coaches.
On Sunday, Quarterman again handled the ball and made several plays for himself and others off of the dribble. He also shot the ball well and when Dream Vision's Isaac Hamilton was lighting his squad up, he switched over and at least made things a bit tougher on the 2013 five-star guard.
The three-star wing's reputation is now on the rise and he was watched closely by coaches -- George Mason's Paul Hewitt was a fixture at his games -- all weekend long.
"I've heard from George Mason, Cincinnati, Georgia Tech, Stanford, Oklahoma, Florida State, Florida, Wake Forest and more," said Quarterman. "George Mason and Oklahoma have offered."
