Santa must have needed some reindeer with some explosiveness. Enter Olafioye. There may be no tougher player in the state to keep in front of you as a defender. Olafioye’s ball handling and fast feet are just what we need to pull the sleigh.

believer and I will never back off my belief in this young man. He led his Ecorse squad on a deep playoff run that had them contending for a state championship last season. That’s the kind of player this young man is and can be. Olafioye has that ‘it’ factor and could lead his team on another special run this year. Watch out for some big numbers and big wins from him in the coming months.

I’m sure you all know that I’ve been incredibly high on this young man’s game since he hit the Prep Hoops Michigan Top 250 as a freshman. He can absolutely take over a game and has as much upside as any player in the state. I more than stand by any high ranking that anyone gives this talented athlete.
