Really?? you are crazy if u think Cezar if he stays the same height now goes NAIA, even if he doesnt grow he is a major D1 point guard he would be small but he would be the smallest guard on the court but the fastest and best handles and he will get stronger look at Levance Fields of Pitt, Nic Wise of Arizona, Sherron Collins of Kansas and oh yeah the top point guard Ty Lawson of UNC all are 5"10 or 5"11 pgs and dominating.
This kid is a stud and will have a great college career whether he grows or not, he needs to stay under control more but that will happen. He is the 2nd best point guard in his class in the country behind Austin Rivers(Doc's Son). I am qualified to say that because i have seen him and alot of the top points, he is better than Marquis Teague, Myck Kabongo, Marquis Rankin, Quinn Cook and Jamaal Branch etc..

hahaha This is like the 6th year in a row that they have this Game and U didn't know it was for Seniors only? U sound like NOT SGV fan. CJ is Great,a legit 1st Team All-Valley as a Sophmore. But has to add 20pounds and grow to be a true 6'0. cause he is 5'10 with 3pairs of socks on. I saw him play 5times this year. I say NAIA if he stays how he is. but if he leaves HS at a true 6'0 180. Div 1. im still wondering how Manny Acosta got 2nd Team and Bobby Miles was 3rd Team???

Pleae tell me that the only reason the best SGV player (Cezar Guerrero) is not playing in the All Star game, is because he is playing in some national showcase game in another state against the best players in the country. If somehow he was not selected, everyone will miss a true Div 1 prospect. This guy is the real deal....to bad. One less ticket sold.
