It was good to see the Phoenix Suns give former Amphi state championship guard Lester Medford of Baylor a pre-draft workout last week. Medford, who completed his college career at Baylor, is likely to play overseas, joining his longtime prep rivals Terrell Stoglin of Santa Rita and Shakir Smith of Tucson High. Stoglin, who played two seasons at Maryland, completed his fourth EuroLeague season last month, averaging 28.2 points for Sagesse of Lebanon. Smith, who was an All-RMAC guard at Adams State last season after a standout stint at Pima College, has signed to play professionally in Germany.
