Fran Fraschilla of ESPN.com had nothing but good things to say about our own, Elias Harris after his recent visit to the LeBron James Skills Camp, here is his excerpt from the article:
"Elias Harris, 6-7, senior, Gonzaga It's a backhanded compliment, but Harris will be one of the best seniors in college basketball. Although projections of him being a lottery selection after a fast start in his freshman year were premature, he has a chance to lead the Zags deep into the NCAA tournament this season.Things like this get me very excited for the new season, cant wait to see Elias come out and have a great senior season!
It's not totally accurate to call Harris a tweener. I'd describe him more as a jack-of-all-trades because while he is undersized, he's a physical presence around the rim and averaged almost nine rebounds a game last year. Yet his perimeter skills have improved throughout his career. In fact, he is currently a 41 percent career 3-point shooter.
Harris carried himself like a veteran at the camp -- he is 23 years old -- and from that standpoint he was impressive. He played hard, challenged the rim and didn't mind trying to dunk on people with his athleticism. He may have impressed NBA scouts, but he proved to be one of the better players here."

Thanks for the update! I love hearing that Elias has been impressive!
He is such a beast, he plays bigger than he actually is.
So excited for next year, and happy to see how deep we can go!
