Coach Sutton on Javon... “Javon is a talented freshman who is probably our best leaper already; he played in a very tough high school region at Dunwoody High School in Georgia and will bring athleticism to the wing position. Javon reminds me of Milone “Spark” Clark (a former Golden Eagle who scored 1000 points and played with the Harlem Globetrotters last year) with his ability to get above the rim.” 50
