Sophomore forward David Nwaba was named to the All-City Second Team after an outstanding season.
The standout sophomore makes it two straight years that a Wildcat has been made an All-City selection (former Wildcat center Kaimyn Pruitt was an All-City selection last season).
Nwaba averaged 14.3 points, 12.8 rebounds, 3 blocks, and 1.3 steals per game while shooting a astounding 65% from the field this season.
Nwaba also raised his level of play in the postseason, producing memorable game-changing moments on both the offensive and defensive side of the ball. He averaged 19.2 points, nabbing 12.2 boards, with 3.3 blocks per game.
There is plenty of reason to believe Nwaba will only continue to get better.
He was the only sophomore named to either of the All-City teams in his first full season at the Varsity level. He was the Cats most athletic player and major post presence despite only being 6-3. Despite matching up against bigger players such as 6-10 USC commit Renardo Sidney, Nwaba still managed to lead the league in rebounding and blocked shots.
He should continue to grow in the final two years of high school and could develop into an even more dominating player if he gains a couple of inches and develops a consistent jump shot over the summer.
