WINNIPEG,MB–McDole’s Gym kicked off day one of the NPH Manitoba Showcase with U of M Bison players Xavier Smith & Jonar Huertas assisting in the strength & conditioning sessions, putting the players to work!
The prospects were split into two groups; one on the strength and conditioning circuit, & the other working on basketball specific drills. Half the battle was attending the showcase, while the other half is applying the skills learned to a daily routine.

Other notable players on day one included Jordan Kelly (2012 6’3 G/ Garden City), Gee-ef Nkwonta (2012 5’10 PG/ Fort Richmond) and Avery Cadougan (2014 6’4 W/St John’s Ravencourt) to name a few.
