The Spalding Hoophall Classic 2011 took place at the famous Springfield’s Basketball Hall of Fame last weekend. Between american top nation prospects, a pair of european tried to keep growing in their team. Turkish Kevin Kaspar (‘93) and lithuanian Benas Griciunas (‘95) -at the pic- are showing his talent at Findlay College Prep sited at Nevada and one of the best programs in the country. Findlay played two games at the event, a Sunday win against St. Andrew’s School and a great victory against powerful Dallas Lincoln HS the day after. On Sunday’s game Kaspar played 14 minutes and complete his stats with 2 points, 2 rebounds, 2 dimes and one steal, and Griciunas played only one minute and hit a bucket. On Monday’s game, Griciunas watched from bench how his turkish teammate played only two nonproductive minutes.

 

Kaspar, born at Istanbul, is considering Hawaii, Brigham Young, San Diego St. and Illinois-Chicago according to many sources.
