Forward Ray Spalding is one of the talented freshman players Louisville Cardinals head coach Rick Pitino has coming into the program this year and he has wasted no time catching the attention of his new coach.
In a recent blog post following his team’s trip to Puerto Rico, Pitino delivered some high praise for the freshman forward.
Specifically, Pitino said that Spalding has as much potential as anyone he has ever coached during his time at Louisville. Wow. That has to be music to Cardinals fans’ ears.
While Pitino admitted that Spalding still needs some time to develop into his full potential, the early flashes of a promising talent are there.
