The most exciting basketball player in the World isn't Lebron James anymore... it's a grade 9 teenager in Seattle Washington by the name of Jashaun Agosto. You have to see Jashaun play to believe just how good this little guy is. He's probably got more HYPE than any athlete in the history of sports... yeah, he's that good! But Jashaun is all that and more, he isn't letting the hype get to him as he puts his religion, family and school before everything... what a kid!

Don't Believe the Hype
The HYPE can be a dangerous thing, especially when there is so much pressure in sports such as basketball. Jashaun received recruiting information from UCLA when he was only 11 years old. He's been a guest on Ellen and he even has a commercial with Doritos. It's obvious that his skills are amazing, so can we believe the Hype? Jashaun has his own twitter account so maybe he doesn't mind all the hype. He's got over 2000 followers and lots of support. It will be really interesting to see if Jashaun can live up to his expectations of becoming a NBA basketball player.
