Sanon transferred to Rockingham (VT) Vermont Academy after a big summer with the BABC program on Nike’s EYBL 15u Circuit. On3 caught up with Joson Sanon at the recent National Prep Showcase to talk about the early stages of his recruitment.

Sanon talks recruiting

Providence: “The campus was nice. I went to watch a practice, and it’s all about talking there; it’s all about the team, not just one individual player.

On defense, everyone is into it, talking and doing their part. They run stuff to get their wings shots in their spots, so I like that.”

Boston College: “It was nice there. Their practice was good; they have a lot of athletic, bigger players on their roster. Everything was good. New head coach Earl Grant has been really cool. I mean, he offered me a scholarship, obviously, after practice.”

Marquette: “They’ve been in touch with me a lot. They’re really close with me, not just contacting me, but talking with my family too.”

In Sanon’s words

“Loyalty will be big for me,” Sanon said. “I also want to go to a good program, one that wins. I’d like to play in a system that has a lot of space on the floor. Maybe one big in the paint, like four around one. Two bigs are ok too, but I just want to play with a lot of spacing.

“I want to hear from UNC; that’s a big one, and Syracuse.”
