    Four-star wing Shon Abaev has cut his list to five schools, he told ZAGSBLOG.

    The 6-foot-7 left-hander from Calvary Christian (FL) is down to Arkansas, Cincinnati, Auburn
    Arizona State and Oregon.

    “He’s a unique point-forward type of player,” ESPN’s Fran Fraschilla told ZAGSBLOG. “At 6-7 he can certainly score but his greatest attribute offensively is he’s a great transition point guard with terrific vision that makes people better.”

    Abaev has no timetable on a decision, but is expected to sign in the spring.
