It’s not often you see a guy turn down a free Division-1 scholarship to play ball overseas, but that’s what Aquille Carr, former standpoint HS point guard from Baltimore did. He’s not the first and probably won’t be the last. Carr first committed then changed his mind.
But things didn’t exactly go as planned. Carr ended up in the D-League instead (before being released) and plans on entering this year’s NBA draft.
At only 5’6″ and with some baggage, Carr may be fighting an uphill battle.
Ex-high school basketball stud Aquille Carr — who famously turned down a scholarship to Seton Hall for a career overseas — now has his sights set on the NBA, telling TMZ Sports he’s training hard for the upcoming draft.
He also tells TMZ Sports he’s learned from his past mistakes, which include a 2012 arrest for domestic assault — “I don’t look back on my past. I’m on to better things, learning, working hard and trusting in god more.”
