Hoop Hall in Springfield is the place to be this weekend to see 30 of the the top 2015 prospects up close.

Okafor and Mudiay are there and 6 others from the top ten ESPN rankings. Wiggins went up against Vonleh in this last year and Parker and Simeon has played there twice. Two of Monday's games are televised on ESPN.

If we keep our future picks, very likely that there will be at least two future Celtics playing here. Here is the schedule if anyone cares. Worth the drive as these guys are good! Danny will be there as his son Crew Ainge plays on Sunday.

Wow, you picked a good year! Yikes, Durant! I saw Beasley when he was at high school at Notre Dame Prep in Fitchburg. Awesome HS player.

In my opinion there is nothing like seeing these guys go head to head in a small gym. You know Danny will be there as his son Crew is at Kimball Union.

Wiggins played well last year and you got to see a totally different skill set than you see just watching him on TV with Kansas.
