Same goes for Zach LaVine and Aaron Gordon, who had the best one-on-one battle we’ve seen in the competition over the years.
Step aside, everybody. Jalen Lecque, the 19-year-old nicknamed “Baby Westbrook” is ready to flaunt his freakish hops on the national stage if he’s given the chance.
“Definitely,” Lecque told me. “I definitely would. If I get chosen for the opportunity I definitely would, but that’s not my decision. That’s the NBA’s decision.”
