The James Hubert Blake High School star has a year left to refine his skills before entering collegiate play. So he's maximizing all the time he has now to prepare for the rigorous competitions of college ball by actively participating in training and development camps during the offseason.

Oladotun has received offers from 42 Division I programs, including prominent institutions like Arkansas, BYU, Maryland, Kansas, Kentucky, USC and Butler. He went to USC last year for an unofficial visit. So far, he has planned only one official visit to date to Maryland for September.
