Kyle Wilson Has Great Range
Kyle Wilson, a skilled 6-7, 227 pound combination/power forward from Jesuit H.S. in Dallas, Tex., was one of the top players at the Great American Shootout in Denton, Tex., last weekend.
Wilson has the ability to put the ball on the floor for a big man and face the basket with range out to about 18 feet. Though he will need to continue getting stronger to mix it up more effectively inside, he may eventually be able to play the three slot at the Division I level.

Wilson helped lead Team Texas Select to the final four of the Shootout, where his club fell to the Tallahassee Wildcats in the final four.
Wilson said he had been offered scholarships by Tulane, New Mexico and Rice, and also has interest from Illinois, Iowa, Baylor, Kansas, Utah, Southern Methodist and Tulsa.
As a junior at Jesuit, Wilson averaged 17 points, eight rebounds, two assists and two blocks per game. Wilson is equally solid in the classroom, weighing in with a 3.2 GPA and 1140 SAT score.
After attending the Nike All-American Camp and the Great American Shootout, Wilson and his Team Texas Select will head west to the adidas Big Time Tournament in Las Vegas as well as the Best of the Summer Tournament in California.
