LeBron James Skills Academy Wednesday Recap

Featuring: Mike Gilchrist, Anthony Davis, Jared Sullinger, Mitch McGary, DWade and more.



This time last year, Anthony Davis was playing with the high school kids, but as an incoming college freshman, the future Kentucky Wildcat was up with the big boys this year, making an immediate impact in the college group with a thunderous dunk over Duke forward Mason Plumlee, although Davis refused to acknowledge his highlight play ever occurred.
“I ain’t saying nothing,” Davis said. “I know he’s caught a lot of people and I don’t want to be the one he catches, you know, coming after me for revenge.”
Other players of note during the college workouts include Kansas forward Thomas Robinson, who dueled with Sullinger in a preview of this December’s OSU-KU match-up, and Minnesota forward Trevor Mbakwe, who cleaned up inside with some power dunks, cleaned the boards, and was one of the most physical defenders on Tuesday.
Surprisingly, incoming Kentucky freshman Michael Gilchrist seemed to disappear throughout the half-court scrimmages, although that may have changed when the players got out in the open court, which was closed to the media.
