I don't usually pay attention to high school players until they become college freshmen or are about to, and personally I don't think it's right for kids to be scrutinized like that before they're at least juniors in high school but that's a different opinion for a different topic. I've just started to watch mixtapes of the Class of 2015 and I have to say I'm impressed. This class looks to be much stronger than 2014.
I just watched his mixtape. He's definitely impressive but he doesn't remind me of Tyreke. He kind of reminds me of James Bell from Villanova as far as his pure talent and ability goes. He's shorter, is a much more polished and advanced player and a better shooter but when Bell came in as a freshmen he had the same ability and talent where you knew he could just go off at any minute but he was maddeningly inconsistent. This kid is going to struggle to get a look from the NBA because of his size, unless he can play some point, but the fact that he's so long definitely helps. I bet he gets drafted high as a sophomore or a junior like a Gary Harris or Elfrid Payton type.
