3 Buckeyes going camping
Three Ohio State players will take a break from their summer routine on campus to join other top college and high school players at their position at Nike-sponsored skills academies next week.

Senior Aaron Craft will be one of 10 college point guards at the Deron Williams and Kyrie Irving camp Tuesday through Thursday in Union, N.J. Fifteen to 20 high school point guards also will attend the camp.

Craft was invited to the point guard camp last summer but missed it when he opted to have surgery to remove a bone chip and three bone spurs from his left ankle.

Interesting fact I read yesterday - Craft is OSU's all-time steals and assists leader after 3 years. I know he's going to play 4, but good to keep in mind that even if he only played 3 he still would've had those records.

Count 'Em Down: Pivotal senior seasons
July, 23, 2013
By Eamonn Brennan | ESPN.com

7. Aaron Craft (Ohio State): You couldn't say Craft has underachieved in his career. Quite the opposite. During his prep days, Craft was seen as a merely respectable but hardly a program-changing recruit, provided your head coach didn't lie to NCAA investigators about having him over for a barbecue. (Ba-dum-ksh.) Craft has long since exceeded those expectations. As a freshman, he seized a starting role in Thad Matta's very good veterans-plus-Jared Sullinger-led lineup, and he has maintained his spot by cementing the respect of teammates and coaches and, most noticeably, playing the best, peskiest perimeter defense in the country. That's his calling card, and it won't go anywhere, but one can't help wondering whether Craft still has more to pick up on the offensive end. Can he be a leading scorer? A more confident 3-point shooter off the dribble? Is that even possible, given the tireless work Craft does on the defensive end? (Related: Can Shannon Scott, who morphed into a deadly defender late last season, take on some of that burden?) Losing Deshaun Thomas means Ohio State has to replace a large chunk of scoring one way or the other; more incisive stuff at the point of attack would be a good place to start.
