High school basketball superstar Tyreke Evans drove a sport utility vehicle away from the scene after a passenger allegedly shot and killed a man last month, according to a Chester Township police affidavit that was released last week. Evans, who lives in the city of Chester, has not been charged with any crime. A senior at American Christian Academy in Aston, Delaware County, Evans is considered one of the nation's top high school players and is being heavily recruited by top-tier colleges, including Villanova, Memphis and Louisville.

I hope he doesn't get too much criticism from the media and shoots up public places such as a mall or church. He may actually blame his problems on the rest of the world.

Maybe he can use the same excuse suburban kids are using these days when they shoot up their school...he was bullied.

If I'm Memphis or Nova, I'm passing on this guy. If I read this story correctly, the guy is missing on a rather critical hoops fundamental, which is following your shot. He'd fit right in at Lousyville.
