Coach Menzies on Precious: "Precious and Promise were available late in the recruiting process, which ended up being a huge plus for Kansas City Basketball. The twins are very high in character and in talent. There are some subtle differences in their basketball abilities, but in general they are long, athletic wings that will fit into our defensive philosophy perfectly. On the offensive side of the ball, the twins are very skilled for their size, which will be a plus in college, as well as professionally!"
