Meet Charles Okwandu

Charles Okwandu has committed to UConn. His story is very similar to Thabeet’s. He played soccer at a young age, and switched over to basketball when he out grew the sport. He started playing in the Basketball Without Borders program, that Thabeet is involved with, and found his way to the States. Charles is still a raw talent, like Thabeet, but has all the tools. He has size, ball skills, vision, and athleticism. This is what his coach, Drew Kelly, said, “For Charles, right now, the sky's the limit. He's just scratching the surface.” Calhoun has the track record of taking raw talent and molding it into NBA ready material.
