BG's men's basketball team picked up another commit for the '15 season, helping to rebuild after losing two recruits and Delvin Dickerson from last year's players and commits.  This young man is a wing player who appears to match best as a SG.  He's Antwon Lillard, who is 6'5", 170 lbs and a highly decorated player.  He played at Cleveland Central Catholic, where he was the leading scorer at 18.9 PPG.

He was the Division II District Player of the Year, and first team All-Ohio.  He was also first-team cleveland.com for the area.

If you google Antwon, the thing you will find most of all is that he was the player who was called for hanging on the rim on what appeared to be a game-sealing dunk in the state final, giving Defiance the victory.

First, he took his team to the state final.  Second, that's something that happens but it doesn't negate or frankly even touch what he did as a HS player in Ohio.  Whether he ends up being a great MAC player will be revealed in time, but it doesn't have anything to do with one play in a state title game.

Welcome to the Falcons, Antwon.
