2018 Ed Chang transfers to Garfield – player notes

<strong>Ed Chang</strong>, a 6-foot-7 forward from Papillion, Nebraska, announced a commitment on Monday to play basketball for the Washington Huskies. Brandon Roy knew when he transitioned from playing to coaching that talent would follow. Last season it was Michael Porter Jr. relocating from Missouri to play for Roy at Nathan Hale. On Wednesday, news broke that Nebraska prep star Ed Chang is relocating to Seattle to finish his senior year at Garfield. Roy recently accepted the head boys basketball coach that was left vacant by longtime Garfield coach Ed Haskins’ departure. Roy starred for the Bulldogs before moving on to become an All-American player at the University of Washington and three-time NBA All-Star. In May, Roy left Nathan Hale to take over his alma mater, Garfield. He steps onto the sideline vacated by longtime coach Ed Haskins at the school where he starred before going on to be an All-American at the University of Washington and then a three-time NBA All-Star with the Portland Trailblazers. Haskins left to be an assistant coach at Washington State. As for Roy’s coaching career, much like when Porter arrived, there is another standout from the Midwest who has chosen to finish his high school career in the Pacific Northwest under Roy’s guidance. According to the Seattle Times Nebraska prep star Ed Chang is relocating to Seattle to finish his senior year at Garfield. Chang, a 6-foot-7, 180-pound forward, comes to Garfield from Papillion-La Vista (Papillion, Neb.). A three-star recruit according to the 247 sports composite, he committed to Washington in July and is rated as the No. 70 small forward in his class. He was also the top-rated recruit in Nebraska, however. Chang, a 6-foot-7, 180-pound forward, appears to be on a similar path. He committed to UW in July and is rated a four-star prospect by ESPN. Chang retweeted news about his pending move on his twitter account but declined to comment to reporters. He averaged 18.1 points per game for Papillion-La Vista, a Class A school that was the runner-up to the state championship. <div></div> https://youtu.be/ILH4kp1j_o4 &nbsp;
