+PBasketball exactly tbh if I was an NBA Guard with IT on me I'd just take him into the post every possession until they took him out so I could start driving lol
Watch him live. He plays really pesky defense. That's why Villanova offered him cause he's a great offensive player and he plays great defense. Plus he's so athletic that he can block lay ups and dunks as well.
Actually even on offense it’s way more difficult if your short. I’m a undersized point guard so when ppl contest my shot I haft to use major high arc to shoot over them. And on lays I haft to put major spin every time. It’s not that ez bro
I’ve met him, coached him at a camp, and watched him play up close. He’s the real deal. And a nice kid too. He was giving it varsity guys when he was in middle school. He’ll be great in the nba
He will be in the NBA..... He's explosive, can finish at the rim with either hand, a hop jump shooter which speeds up his shot release, he has range on his 3ball, tenacious defender, extremely confident with high basketball IQ.... My sons played against him twice this year and will see him again twice next year.
+DR0CK016 ur drunk never disrespect aquille carr again, the midget that went toe to toe with andrew wiggins? the same aquille thats on the houston rockets? yeah you couldn't be comparing this man to THAT man smh
+Jack Daniels First of all I didn't disrespect Aquille Carr at all, you did by calling him a midget. I pointed out that Lykes is more polished than Aquille not better. That meaning his game fits better into the college game than Aquille's did in HS. Specifically his ability to shoot the ball, which is key on the college level. Pound for pound, I'd take Carr because of his tenacity and raw talent. But because Lykes can shoot he's going to get bigger name college looks than Carr.
"Heart over height" said every nigga under 5'9 that think they gunna make the nba wit just "heart" lmao. In reality coaches want "heart and height" lmao
Dope TV get your hating ass outta here coaches can want what they want but u don't have to be tall for a coach to want u. If that was true Chris wouldn't be in the top 50, he wouldn't be the best player in the DMV, he wouldn't be dominating the WCAC and Peach Jam, and he wouldn't be going to a top tier D1 college
Dope TV it's even funnier because u talkin all that trash yet u begging Hoop Journey for a mixtape😂😂stop hating on good players and get better with yo trash ass
IMO he's good enough to get drafted a lot more skilled then guys drafted n the past. Spud Webb , Muggsy Bogues , Earl Boykins has a better floor game than Nate Robinson better shot the vision the ability to create his own shot can finish w either hand he puts pressure on the defense has a great feel for the game crazy IQ and the heart of a lion is Chris Lykes has that game to make it to the league
.Better jump shot, more effective with dribble. Greater composure and consistency. Although less explosive, but explosive enough. Overall, better than Acquille Carr.
i hear people talking about heart and height coaches want hardworkers on their team because then if those hard workers go to the NBA other and good people will want to go there height does not matter !!!!!!!! and if you have a better guard that's shorter then why not that's like saying Chris Paul isn't better than someone like Shaun Livingston and he's 6'4" once again COLLEGE coaches look for hardworkers not "height"
He’s nice but never could he be king of the DMV I know hoopers that didn’t get there chance to show their hoop mixtapes and current hoopers that will make you believe steph isn’t alone
Great shooting mechanics + vertical + ability to finish and handle the ball. He doesn't need height
+HPM Royale you're acting like that's bad
+HPM Royale okay I get what u meant now
:)
So basically he's well-behaved Aquille Carr
Got my phone taken away in class watching this 😂 ball is life
One of the best mixtapes I've seen in a while.
Sean Ballow what mixtapes have u seen then? 95% of it was just trey balls anyone can just post jumpers
Playing against short players is so annoying, especially when they're lefty
No shit
+xPsyrate I happen to be one of those short lefty players lol
+PBasketball exactly tbh if I was an NBA Guard with IT on me I'd just take him into the post every possession until they took him out so I could start driving lol
I'm mugsy with the left boi
I'm on of these short left handed players. I'm a pesky defender and I'm 5,10 but I can't shoot to save my life.
They should make shorts that arent too long for him, he deserves such treatment for his play
lmaooo 😂💀💀💀dead af
Yeoooooo😂💀
i WANT TO SEE THE NBA Draft a 5'4 - 5'7 guy's , that can play!
memories of aquille
never
NO
yeah
Carr was better imo
swmike10 lykes more skill
All respect 💯. You gone make it, just don't give up. Do it for us (short/undersized) people
Height isn't for offense it's more defense anybody can be good offensively that's why a lot of short guys don't make it
W
But look at his athleticsm. His timing when his blocking a shot is great for his height.
Watch him live. He plays really pesky defense. That's why Villanova offered him cause he's a great offensive player and he plays great defense. Plus he's so athletic that he can block lay ups and dunks as well.
Your right... Now he is an mvp candidate
Actually even on offense it’s way more difficult if your short. I’m a undersized point guard so when ppl contest my shot I haft to use major high arc to shoot over them. And on lays I haft to put major spin every time. It’s not that ez bro
I’ve met him, coached him at a camp, and watched him play up close. He’s the real deal. And a nice kid too. He was giving it varsity guys when he was in middle school. He’ll be great in the nba
And... of course he can dunk... don't mind me just gonna cry myself to sleep again
exactly what i said 😂
this music is lowkey savage for how short he is
LMAO
He will be in the NBA..... He's explosive, can finish at the rim with either hand, a hop jump shooter which speeds up his shot release, he has range on his 3ball, tenacious defender, extremely confident with high basketball IQ.... My sons played against him twice this year and will see him again twice next year.
He got the skills but not the height‼️
Lol this aged poorly
@@ThevelvetundergroundnNico not really, hes making plenty of money overseas and im sure hes content with the life hes living
@@thegreatgojousatoru5846 his not in the league that my point
Man he is so fast! He is an amazing player for his height he's my motivation that I can go D1 just like him.😅🏀
Work hard like really hard and it can happen
Miami Commit !
Make a mixtape for me il pay u
Arkansas ^
At that height you have to be really good imagine if he was that good at the average point guard height... it's crazy
Bro he has gotten so much better since high school. I remember watching him back in the day cant wait to see him kill it after college
much respect to this dude I'm 5'6 as well man beautiful ass jumpshot
SteamyHD keep grinding bro
this guy needs to make it to the nba he is a amazing player with a insane vert
hell yeah if you playing above the rim it doesn't matter how short you are!!!!!
Just saw him at Les Scwab invitational. Holy Crap!!! Beautiful jump shot, great passer. Super fun guy to watch. seemed humble too.
Great video, can't lie pretty inspirational, i just want to go back out and play.
hopefully he has a growth spurt in college
Stfu His height dont matter
I get the EXACT same vibes from this kid as aquille carr, hopefully he goes further tho
These short guys dominate high school! It's a shame they don't get the looks they deserve at the next level.
He has been offered by Georgetown and Villanova
+Cameran Hyde and notre dame
+Justin Lynn and miami
Cameran Hyde glad to hear that
I remember seeing him play at a dematha game, he's crazy good
He is nice and sick mixtape
I wouldn't say the king of the DMV I mean Markelle Fultz and Anthony Cowan are better but he's tough. WCAC just so much talent
He was the WCAC Player of the Year 😂
+BallislifeEast I'm hip that doesn't mean he's better than them
+Jordan Bushrod He is the king Of Dmv if he got the award
That's very debatable.
+Jordan Bushrod Bushrod if you don't shut yo dumbass up nigga
Even kill and un bothered by the extra bull crap. This guy is amazing. Tremendous upside!!!
So inspiring since I'm like him . I'm 5'7 also
Dmv stand up 🤝!!
his vert makes his jump shot just as good as taller people also he dribbles lower so he doesnt have that many disadvantages. believe and achieve
Best player in the DMV. He's way more polished than Aquille Carr especailly with regards to his shooting
+DR0CK016 ur drunk never disrespect aquille carr again, the midget that went toe to toe with andrew wiggins? the same aquille thats on the houston rockets? yeah you couldn't be comparing this man to THAT man smh

Rise young fella 💯
I'm more impressed of his GPA I love seeing young African Americans knowing how important school is
Um ok 🤔 what does being African American have to do with him learning ?
Yeah what the hell you racist😂
Drippy X Teee because a lot of African American youth don't what they're supposed too
GaminProdigy thank you for the info,they clearly dident understand
Des7royer234 takr this L you idiot
Reminds Me Of Acquille Carr
Got that Jerryd Bayless shot
Going crazy down in south Florida
2:09 block was nasty🔥
He reminds me of a young Chris Paul
He could windmill from the middle of the foul line
Seen many explosive players like him. Check out Marquise Mosley from Cali. He played for Earl Watson Elite. They have the same game.
5'6 and dunking anyone taller has no excuse
Welcome to the U!!
This proves height doesn't mean nothing
Chris lykes is tuffer than markelle fultz
Dejon Tyler lmfao yeah ight put the crack pipe away son..
Dejon Tyler since you can't spell I'll just act like you ain't make this stupid comment
+chocolatemilk who are you

Nate Robinson, mugsy bogues,spudd Webb
IMO he's good enough to get drafted a lot more skilled then guys drafted n the past.

.Better jump shot, more effective with dribble. Greater composure and consistency. Although less explosive, but explosive enough. Overall, better than Acquille Carr.
+Tenzin Bhutia No

Mugsy+Westbrook combined?

They do
I played in DC, a lot of schools don't have shot clocks, but the Catholic league gonzaga is in use shot clocks
+digge546 yeh the wcac uses shotclocks
He is 5'6" and can dunk, well im 6' and can touch rim...barely
Young westbrook

He's so much better than aquille carr....
I respect this kids game buy how does he have D1 when he 5'6 and Chance Green got D3 not even D2 offers bruh
He's going D1 because he's extremely skilled,high iq,picks his spots well, and has a lot of heart

Because he would destroy Chance Greene's bum ass
Ikr, chance greene should've at least been div 1..
ProbablyThe1 disagreed
