WSSU Rams' Bazemore enjoys summer league

WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina - WyKevin Bazemore isn't resting on the success he had in his first basketball season at Winston-Salem State.

Bazemore, a 6-foot-5 forward who was voted the CIAA freshman of the year for 2011-12, is back working on his game, playing in the Triad Pro-Am Summer League at Forsyth Country Day with WSSU teammates Tyre Desmore, William Peay and Justin Glover.

Also competing in the league, now in its sixth season, are Wake Forest and other current and former Division I and Division II players and some professional players with area ties.

"The competition is great, and the guys are really into it," said Bazemore, who also helped WSSU win last season's CIAA title. "We are in the gym a lot, all trying to improve, but these games are good for us because it's going to help with my confidence, and I'm working a lot on my jumper."
