Charles Bassey might not be a household name, but it has nothing to do with his talent. The former No. 6 high school recruit in the country chose to play his college ball at Western Kentucky. As a result, he didn’t receive the national exposure he would have at a blue blood school like Duke or Kentucky.
National exposure or not, Bassey has a big game. Although small ball was the preferred style for the Brooklyn Nets last year, they could use some size to bolster the ranks. Bassey looks like a prototype of the modern-day, rim-running center.
