Also from SLAM comes a report from the adidas Nations event in Dallas. This was an event consisting of scrimmages between teams of current college ballplayers, and among them were a couple of familiar faces: Louisville's athletic wingman Terrence Williams and Tennessee freshman Scotty Hopson, both of whom made SLAM's top ten performers list. Below is what writer Aggrey Sam had to say about their showings in Dallas:

Scotty Hopson, 6-5 freshman wing, Tennessee: The only other true freshman in attendance wasn’t too shabby either, as Hopson’s versatile offensive game—the Kentucky native jumps out of the gym, has range for days and gets to the bucket with ease—gave defenders fits.

Terrence Williams, 6-6 senior small forward, Louisville: One of the best players at this event last year, Williams (who I personally thought would have tested the draft waters last year) was at a different level than the other players in Dallas, as he was either too strong, too quick, too skilled, too athletic or simply too good for other players to handle. 

Earlier tonight the Kentucky High School All-Star team erased an eight game losing streak against the Indiana All-Stars in an impressive 95-78 victory at the Louisville Gardens. This was the second match-up of the annual double header between the neighboring states, the first game played on this past Friday in Indianapolis ending in a heartbreaking 83-82 defeat of the Kentucky squad.

Sunday was a different story, however, as Kentucky's Shelvin Mack and Darius Miller stole the show and led their squad to a relatively easy victory in the Gardens. The official stats have not been released yet, as soon as they are we will post an update.

Friday's game saw a very heated match in which the KY squad's 29 turnovers ultimately sealed their defeat. Tyler Zeller, a UNC commit, led Indiana with 22 points. Shelvin Mack (Lex. Bryan Station/Butler University) of KY led all scorers with 24, Scotty Hopson (Univ. Heights HS/Tennesse) had 14 pts, 5 rebs, and 6 TO's, and Darius Miller (Mason Co./UK) had 11 pts, 4 rebs, and 5 TO's.
