Better than Ron Harper?
Got it. I’d never heard of him before. After reading a bit more, it looks like he was widely considered the best prep player in the country at the time. Thanks for the additional info.As a high schooler, definitely. He might be a top-5 all-time high school player in Ohio. His senior year he averaged 38/14/11. A few different sources regarded him as being the #1 prospect in his class, and he was a McDonald's and Parade All-American.
It's a shame he ended up going off the rails a bit and didn't pan out in the NBA. Older folks seem to swear that he was a freak athlete for his time and had huge talent.

eastside purple, I posted this in the high school boys basketball forum:Better than Ron Harper?
I know it's odd, but it was said. Here's the exact quote, from Monday's Dayton Daily News article by Tom Archdeacon (the same quote, or very similar, can also be found on youtube, with Isaiah saying it on video):I do find that kind of an odd statement. MJ is only 2 years younger than Anderson, Anderson's time was MJ's time.
Actually, in high school it wasn't even close. He didn't make the team at Belmont his sophomore year and transferred to Kiser his last 2 years of high shcool.Better than Ron Harper?
Yeah, I understand that now. Thanks.Actually, in high school it wasn't even close.
NP. I'm here to provide more clarity that's all.Yeah, I understand that now. Thanks.
