Basketball: Collinsworth goes up against the best
Today, Kyle Collinsworth, the Provo star, and the unquestioned top rising senior in Utah, will hop on a plane and take a flight to Charlottsville Virginia.
Tomorrow through Sunday, the 6-foot-7 guard will test himself against the best players in the country.
Collinsworth is a part of the NBA top 100 camp, which, since the death of the Nike and ABC camps, has emerged as the premier summer camp in the country. This year, the camp is particularly stacked with talent, as 49 of the top 50 players listed by Scout.com will be in attendance.
Collinsworth is the second Utah player to attend the camp in consecutive years, with former Lone Peak and rising BYU freshman Tyler Haws attending the invite only camp last season.
And while Haws did okay, he did struggle with the athleticism of the camp. In those terms, Collinsworth may be better suited to make an impact, as the strength of his game is predicated on creating shots for others and getting to the basket off the dribble.
Collinsworth is currently ranked as the 71st best player in the country, according to Scout. His stock, quite simply, could go through the roof if he has a good week. As it is, BYU's unquestioned top target in the class of 2010 has plenty of offers from Utah to Virginia to Washington State.
