Interesting video: Isaiah Johnson (sr.) vs Joe Sterling (jr.) & then Duke 5* Nik Khamenia (UConn now)

[Gerry Hamilton]

This was when Johnson and Khamenia were seniors, and Sterling a junior...

Isaiah Johnson easily the best player on the floor. Like not even close

Johnson was a 3* and Nik Khamenia the 5* and McDonald's AA ... I'll say it again, Johnson is going to be a first round pick in 2027 or 2028 IMO 

Joe Sterling has some Fletcher Loyer in him, if his foot quickness is close enough to Loyer to be able to hold his own defensively. Can flat out shoot it, more comfortable with ball than given credit for.

If Sterling ends up with Fletcher Loyer-level career that’s a massive W for Texas

Fletcher Loyer’lite would be ideal by years 3-4

Sterling is a hooper ... again, against most guys a in class ahead of him ... Fletcher Loyer level player in play IMO

Sterling looked collected and capable in this game. I think he will be a contributor by the end of the season.
