Post prospect Jonathan Wilkins

The younger brother of ISU's John Wilkins is named Jonathon Wilkins and he is currently playing basketball for a club team in Belgium.

We've had discussion about him for more than 3 years ever since his older brother John broke onto the scene. And the younger Jonathan did play one AAU tourney with the AAU Wolves a year ago and was said to be coming back this summer but plans changed.
Now Jonathan is coming to enroll at La Lumiere HS as noted here.

One fine ISU fan tipped me off to this a month ago but now I have heard it from several sources...



Wilkins is playing for the Belgian team BC Cointe --
AND he rarely also plays with the parent club Liege but is not on their roster page..
(Blake Griffin's brother is)

A few months back this guy came on to BradleyFans.com and and told us that -

I PM'ed him and he told me Wilkins - whose first name is Jonathon not Jonathan - was very skinny and 6-10 and gave me a link to a photo of him.

If you use the right spelling and "Cointe" you can find lots on him on the searches...

Also this page lists two different birthdays for Jonathon Wilkins..

Anyway -- he seems like a good post prospect - and since he's already played games with the parent club -- a PROFESSIONAL club in Belgium -- he may be subject to the same pro penalty his brother got...so be careful!!
