On the 22nd, the Top 250 Expo will travel back to Virginia where it will take place at Riverbend High School. In anticipation of the upcoming expos in the area, we’re in the process of highlighting 30 prospects who benefited respectively from last year’s local showcases. Today, we take a look at 2020 big man Kai Kuper of Middleburg Academy.
PRE-CAMP
Kuper was a relative unknown heading into camp. A native of Germany, he has good size at 6-foot-8 and moves well. One thing his coaches told us was that he played the Goalkeeper position in the Borussia Dortmund Youth Academy.
DURING CAMP
Kuper made his presence felt on both ends of the court not long after the showcase began. He initially stood out on the offensive end with his ability to stretch the floor and finish around the basket with touch. Defensively, Kuper rebounded well and protected the rim pridefully.
POST-CAMP
Despite having a productive junior season at Middleburg, Kuper continues to fly under the radar. He remains one of the best available bigs in Virginia.
