New Albany's Romeo Langford shined for the 16U EG10 team this weekend. Langford was productive while showing that he has immense potential. Here is a look at the 2018 wing.

Langford made an impact on the New Albany team from day one of his freshman year. With Langford's help, New Albany went 23-3 with two of the losses coming at the hands of Evansville Reitz. Langford had many huge games during his freshman season.  One time he had 20 points at the half while his opponent had 17 points as a team. Another time he had an 18 point half while the opposing team had 17 points. Overall, he averaged 18 points per game as a freshman.

The New Albany freshman was efficient while getting his 18 points per game during the high school season. The Bulldogs had more options than Langford, so he was not shooting the ball 20+ times a game. He had a 3-point percentage of 39 and shot 55% from the floor. He was active in all areas of the game as well. He grabbed more than six rebounds, two blocks and two steals per game.

During the travel season, he is playing up a year with the junior-to-be Eric Gordon All-Stars. It is another group that he dos not get to shoot 15+ times per game. He fits in well and finds spots to get points. He is not player that needs the ball in his hands each possession. That bodes well for his future development.

What makes Langford so good right now? First is his size and length. Most players would list themselves 6-foot-5 in Langford's position. He calls himself 6-3. It looks like he could easily grow a little bit more as well. The craziest thing about Langford is his wingspan. He has a +6 wingspan which means he spans 6-9 from finger tip to finger tip. Most people's wingspan equals their height. The added length helps him in a number of ways.

He is a solid athlete and a very good one for his age. He is not really strong, so he is likely getting his athleticism from natural ability. Since he is not very strong right now, when he does add strength it should increase his explosiveness to an even higher level.  His wiry/lanky build also means that he did not overpower defenders on the varsity level to get his huge production. Another good sign for his future.

Last but not least is the fact that Romeo Langford is a skilled player. He handles the ball well. He normally makes good decisions with the ball without forcing shots. Langford has solid shooting mechanics which allows him to be a good outside shooter with room to become even better. If Langford is going to be an elite recruit and eventually a major contributor at an elite program, his skill set will need to make strides but he is heading in the right direction.

Romeo Langford does not have any scholarship offers at this point. He is drawing major attention with top regional programs like Butler, Indiana, Louisville, Xavier and Purdue. It is just a matter of time before a host of scholarship offers come rolling in for Langford.
