Transcript

00:00 >> All right, Cam, we've been watching the talent here for the past two days.

00:03 You guys, you were one of the guys that stuck out.

00:05 What's helped you be so comfortable, kind of showcase your talents?

00:08 >> Well, this is my second year being here at Top 50 Camp, and

00:12 it's just a pleasure being here.

00:13 I feel like I'm one of the older guys.

00:16 I've been playing basketball for a real long time at a really high level,

00:18 at the collegiate level.

00:19 So I think they give me an advantage here.

00:21 >> Absolutely, so what is it like to receive instruction from former NBA players

00:26 and kind of being able to pick from their wrestling and your knowledge?

00:29 >> It's a once in a lifetime experience, really.

00:32 You don't get this every day, especially being from HBCU,

00:34 you really don't get this kind of, I'll say, this, I can't even-

00:40 >> Exposure.

00:40 >> Exposure, there we go.

00:41 That's the word I was looking for, exposure.

00:43 We don't get this kind of exposure every day, so it's great, man.

00:45 Coach Westbrook, Coach Daines, Coach Mack,

00:51 everybody been real supportive of everything, so I appreciate them for that.

00:55 >> Honestly, representing Alderman, and not only you, but

00:58 Ernest Williams is here as well.

00:59 >> Yeah. >> How's it feel for

01:00 you know, Alabama Angels kind of being on the map with basketball,

01:03 while you know, two guys here at the Top 50 camp?

01:05 >> It's actually three.

01:06 >> Three. >> Yeah, we got three.

01:08 Yeah, me, EJ, and Lamar and Pete, we're three five year, fifth year guys.

01:15 I knew me and EJ been together for five years, and me and Lamar been together for

01:18 two years, and I love playing with those guys, they're my dudes, and

01:22 yeah, it's been great playing with them.

01:23 >> I mean, I guess, to close it out, what's one thing you're looking forward to,

01:28 you know, at the camp, in terms of improving now that you've been able to

01:31 test your talent as a top player, since you get ready for the season?

01:35 >> One thing I look forward to is just bettering my team, really.

01:39 Going back to my school and giving them the knowledge that I gained from here,

01:44 and you know, just bettering my team.

01:46 >> All right, perfect, thanks so much.

01:47 >> Thank you. >> Thank y'all.
