Title: James Bishop, 6-3 SG, Batlimore MD (Mt. St. Josephs)
Post by: fordham96 on April 29, 2018, 10:00:24 PM: Greg just offered this kid. Really starting to blow up. Sounds like Marquette leads for this kid at this point.

Already hearing from a slew of high-major programs, Bishop torched the nets to a toon of 43 points off of 11-of-15 shooting from the 3-point line. The need for shot makers and scorers has never been valued and throw in Bishop’s competitive mindset and what is there is a tough and driven junior that can take over a game. “I just wanted to come out and show that I want to win,” he said. “My mentality is just the same as every game, no matter what,” he said. “

Following his scoring outbreak, St. John’s, La Salle and Michigan offer. Bishop noted beforehand that Marquette, Xavier, VCU, Temple, NC State and a handful of other have remained heavily in touch up until now.

Since Bishop is wired to score, many programs have shown love. St. John’s assistant Matt Abdelmassih was front and center at LIVE in AC to see what the guard can bring.

“They’re a good program and I like them a lot,” said Bishop. “Just the way they do things with their coach (Chris) Mullins and that’s someone I would really look to for advice [since] I want to go to the NBA.”
