It’s crazy to even maybe have the opportunity to play with your brother. Even just watching last year’s film, we played very well together. We won a lot of games together. It’s honestly great. He wasn’t a highly touted kid, so seeing how he just kept working, it shows. He (Penn State coach Mike Rhoades)calls me a lot and talks about how much he talks about keeping his word as he did with my brother. He’s playing like 25-to-30-minutes a game. It’s all you can ask for as a freshman with the ball in your hands.”
Mingo (2026), is a 6′-5,” versatile, combo-guard, and is the No. 2 ranked overall high school basketball player in the country, per Rivals. He is also the No. 1 ranked player out of the state of New York. Mingo is from Glen Head, New York and plays ball for the Long Island Lutheran (LuHi) Cardinals.
