A lot of folks in recruiting circles want to know more about Fab Melo, but for now all we have are his on court performances.  During this past weekends NBAPA Top 100 Camp, Melo actually played better against the best of the best than he did on the AAU circuit.  One thing you cannot teach is size and Melo has plenty, standing near 7-0  and weighing in at 260.  He currently resides in Weston, Florida and will play for Sagemont High School in the coming season.  Despite his enormous talent, Melo, one year removed from Brazil, struggles with the english language.  In the following audio interview, Melo was doing fine, but backed away from the media.  To date, nobody has been able to conduct a complete interview with Melo.
