The five-star big man, Deandre Ayton, moved from the Bahama’s to the mainland, specifically San Diego. He then bounced around and ended up going to Hillcrest Prep in Phoenix, AZ.
Ayton played this summer for California Supreme, an AAU team out of Southern California that was founded by Head Coach Gary Franklin Sr. twelve years ago. Cal Supreme may sound familiar to Wildcats fans. That’s because Arizona PG Parker Jackson-Cartwright also played for Franklin and his Cal Supreme team. Coach Franklin calls PJC his “Might Mouse.”
We would be remiss not to mention that former Arizona Wildcat and current New Orleans Pelican Solomon Hill also grew out of this stable and successful program.
