I did the search and nothing showed up.

For me, I was at this morning basketball pick-up game league thing for the first time, and there was this about 5'10" guy who looked like Ricky Rubio, and was absolutely insane. Fastest and quickest player I've ever played against, and was money from everywhere on the court, routinely would pullup on the fast break and drain threes, had a money floater and would break peoples ankles with ease.

I came the second day and asked where he was, and they were like "Oh James left to go try out for a professional team in Spain" and he made it.

Also my friend played against Jabari Parker (number 2 prospect in class of 2013, some people think he's best HS player since lebron).

I know some people here player against pros. Tehova and Kashanova I think...

Tyshawn Taylor lives in my town and he goes to play pick up sometimes in the summer.

Only guys really of note that I've played against are Dane Miller (plays for Rutgers right now) and Chinonso Obokoh (just committed to Syracuse).

I'm pretty sure that I played against someone from NYC that ended up being a top 20 recruit, but it was back when I was younger and wasn't really paying much attention to recruiting. But he was from NYC and was playing for an AAU team that was ranked in the top 10 in the country and he just absolutely destroyed us.

Lastly, I played against someone named Glenn Taggart Sr. who played for North Carolina A&T back in the day. He was probably in his late 30s or early 40s when I played against him, but even then, he was probably the best basketball player I've ever played against.

On a kinda related note, I was playing at the gym last year and James Southerland and Rakeem Christmas walked in during our game and I ended up hitting 3 3's in a row right in front of them. Obviously isn't the same as playing against them, but it felt pretty cool to play well in front of the guys that are actually on the basketball team here.

I've played against some of the walk-ons at Syracuse a few times and outplayed them just about every time, so that's a nice feeling too.

Deron Williams, Chris Bosh, TJ Ford, Emeka Okafor, Daniel "Boobie" Gibson, Kendrick Perkins, Daniel Ewing, Bracey Wright.

I was once played in the same tournament as Carmelo Anthony, but our teams didn't meet up. Overall, Texas High School hoops gave me great experiences.
