He’s the definition of “bucket” which sometimes gets overused. This dude is a natural bucket.

He’s working on it in case we play Purdue’s guards again

Rumor is Meleek is announcing his commitment Thursday or Friday. Staff and family talked about the announcement while also not competing with the players moment who are in the draft.
This is also 100% fake. I’m starting this rumor
Never let facts get in the way of a good story.

It won't take long to a "Malik" either. Don't worry.
If your mother gives you an alternative spelling of a name, you are going to have to accept that people are going to spell it properly from time to time.

What gets me is that Meleek he has all those offensive skills yet seems a willing passer and wants to D up. Kid is special.

1996 was a low point for me in UConn basketball. A UMass fan called into WTIC and said Calhoun would never get to the Final 4. I wish I had his phone number.
Maybe it was actually Calipari.

I will say my iPhone automatically corrects it to that. I got called out for it on Twitter and added Meleek to my dictionary to avoid it again. But as a general rule of thumb there is no hope for this board spelling names right.
Maybe you can share what app you purchased so our spelling bee challenged friends can add it to their phones.

Sometimes 5 stars don't jump off the screen. This kid does in so many ways. He would be an incredible cornerstone to the recruiting class.

I was trying to figure out who his shot and pull up game looked like, and that’s the one. He’s very, very similar style-wise.

On3 recruiting prediction machine has us up to 2nd place with a 16% chance to land his commitment. Sick.

So you can add a name to your dictionary and then it won't autocorrect to the wrong spelling? Hmmm. Maybe we can do an automatic autocorrect for Tristen on the Boneyard. We'll call it our final gift to him for the 2 championships.

He's got the Jalen Adams 1 Handed Over the Top Euro Step.
Good luck, defenders....

He's dynamic. Quick twitch athleticism but also with very high skill. Impressive.

I like our chances at 16%. That seems about right.

That is machine based with no human intel. So it means pretty much squat.
Only look out for real predictions from real people.

He doesn't just move, he moves with a plan. He attacks and loops for the slightest defensive mistake to burst through.

UNC didn’t crush me because I put that in the same bucket as UCLA in 1995. I knew we’d have most of the core back the next year. Plus the UNC game was effectively a road game. The Duke game in 1990 hurt because the Final Four was so close, but the whole season was an unexpected magic carpet ride. The 1994 and 1996 teams carried much greater expectations and were better teams than they lost to. We would have won 8 or 9 times out of 10. Unfortunately both caught us in those 1 or 2 type exception games.
That UCLA game was something else.
