Live LSI GAMES FEATURE JAHLIL OKAFOR Plus NW & NATIONAL POWERS

The Les Schwab Invitational has been a human highlight reel since the first of these 32 games tipped off.  There have been so many big moments; buzzer beaters, half court shots, impressive defense, high scoring talent, and the dunks…. oh those dunks.  The staff at Liberty High School is going to have to do a full rim inspection and rebolt and tighten everything after the beating these poor glass and metal friends of ours have taken.  In a word the LSI 2013 have been spectacular.

Okafor
