	Monta Ellis and Travis Outlaw are missing off the top of my head

	Thanks man, I try my best :)

	Minnesota is misspelled. Other than that, great. How can one high school produce four out of twenty-eight of these guys?

	Nobby745:	May 31st, 2012 at 02:39 GMT		1 point
	Oak Hill is a private school that recruits Jr. High Basketball Players, they have also produced Rondo, Durant, and Carmelo to name a few. Glad you like the quiz, thanks :)

	Might help to clarify that this is American-born players only. Several foreign-born players didn't go to college.

	jayman:	May 31st, 2012 at 03:38 GMT		2 points
	Only 2 L's in Ellis.

	Nobby745:	May 31st, 2012 at 03:44 GMT		1 point
	Thanks jayman, i'll fix Monta's name and do some research to find some foreign players, if you can think of any off the top of your head please share :)

	jayman:	May 31st, 2012 at 04:10 GMT		2 points
	Tried looking for a website that listed such players. No luck yet. Ginobili, Parker, Gasol(s), Nowitzki, Nene, Varejao, to name a few.

	andray blatche didnt go to college either

	dstreet14:	May 31st, 2012 at 05:47 GMT		2 points
	Blatche went to prep school for a year after finishing high school, could be why he wasn't included

	Nobby745:	May 31st, 2012 at 06:07 GMT		1 point
	Yeah, i added Blatche, I am also going to research all of the european nba players(which will be easy because i have a europen nba player quiz) and see which ones did not go to college, :) Thanks for the help guys

	Thanks again Jayman, I decided to change the quiz to United States raised players. Perhaps in the future i could add on to/change the quiz to have Players born outside fo the U.S., but many of the players went to sports clubs and played in their home countries before coming to play for the untied states which makes everything very confusing and tricky (as well as unreliable)to know for sure if certain players did or didn't go to college in foreign countries. Thanks again :)

	Marc Gasol actually went to high school in Memphis. That could qualify him for "USA raised".

	Nobby745:	May 31st, 2012 at 22:58 GMT		1 point
	Thanks, What about Pau, i'll have to do some research

	Nobby745:	May 31st, 2012 at 23:03 GMT		1 point
	I added him, and you are correct, i was going for players who went to United States High Schools :)

	SJHollen:	May 31st, 2012 at 23:46 GMT		2 points
	Anderson Varejao went to college in brasil, not the USA so you should add him. he's one of my favorite players as well

	Nobby745:	Jun 1st, 2012 at 00:08 GMT		1 point
	I would add him, but as you stated he did not go to high school, if i added him i would have to add others like ginibili and Nene, perhaps i might add them i nthe future and change the quiz name from U.S.A. raised, to American Raised. Thanks, P.S., many of my frineds think I kinda look like anderson :)

	Maybe this is splitting hairs but Stephen Jackson went to community college for a year before he was drafted. Is the quiz only for NCAA colleges?

	Nobby745:	Jun 1st, 2012 at 02:24 GMT		1 point
	Yeah, I thought about the same thing, but he did go to a college, even if it wasn't a NCAA college... so i decided to leave him out, thanks though :)

	Nobby -- Stephen Jackson is still listed here, which is why I mentioned it. :)

	Sad how far T-Mac's career has fallen that so many people (including myself) forgot him.

	Wasn't to long ago he was the NBA's leading scorer, lets all have a moment of silence for Tracy's Jumpshot................................. You will never be forgotten.... Forget it, it already has been
