"Darion Atkins - Several other Team Takeover players get the hype, but it was Atkins that got things done. The 6-foot-8 power forward has always had length and athleticism to spare, and he used those physical tools well in an impressive performance. With Takeover losing, Atkins came in the game and changed things around. He ran the floor, blocked shots, and finished above the rim with dunks. His play got things turned around, and eventually Takeover came back to get a key win, and Atkins was probably their best player."

With the loss of Skeen after this year we will have an opening for top forward. After this year I believe it will only be Reddick and Veal. And I believe Veal will only have one year after next if I am correct. Haley would be our center.
 
His team was actually on ESPNU recently during their broadcast of the AAU super showcase. I think they played Thursday but I caught the tail end of a replay of one of his games this evening. Couldn't get much of a feel for his game but he's definitely "long."
 
Also during the ESPNU telecast they mentioned that VCU was recruiting his AAU teammate Juilian DeBose.
