Bud Mackey, one of the top high school basketball players in the country was arrested at his high school today on 2 felony counts on charges of cocaine/crack trafficking and trafficking a controlled substance within 1,000 yards of school. Mackey who is 18 years old led Scott County High School in Kentucky to a state championship and an unbeaten record in the state during his Jr. season last year. Mackey and Scott County got national attention this past Feb on ESPN by upsetting then #1 ranked in the country Huntington High who had 2 of the best high school stars in the country in USC's O.J. Mayo and Kentucky's Patrick Patterson. Mackey 18, is a 6 ft 4 PG who had committed to Indiana and was ranked #35 overall in the the nation. He was one of the favorites for Kentucky Mr. Basketball and Scott County was favored to repeat as state champs and a contender for one of the nations top teams on the USA Today poll. Many projected Mackey as a strong contender to make the McDonalds All American Team.


I think its very sad that a player with so much potential as Mackey has basically thrown it all away.

Dunno every basketball player at my school does some hardcore drugs too

I blame Leonardo DiCaprio

As long as it wasnt Eric Gordon.

Gordons gonna be special IMO. He has some explosive offense.

SLANGIN

Who the fuck keeps up with high school basketball??

Mackeys one of the nations best thats committed to a big time program like Indiana Krispy, this guy has NBA potential.

#35 :|

Just saying, it's not like it's OJ.

Mayo is raw.

Still, the No. 35 prospect is hardly a sure thing to even be good in college. Especially if he has coke problems.
