I realized we had a dearth of information on Mr. Wilson, still, so I thought I'd dig up what I could. These articles are dated, but they might help give a clearer picture of him as a player and prospect.

Cleveland Plain Dealer

Quote:
Robert Wilson helped the Bulldogs to a great start with 11 first-quarter points, including three consecutive 3-pointers for a 19-9 lead. Wilson finished with 24 points. His backcourt teammate, Carl Jones, led all scorers with 30. Jones' 3-pointer with 15 seconds left in the second quarter gave Garfield Heights a 45-27 lead at the half.
"We came in and we played hard and we played defense the way you're supposed to," Wilson said. "It's a lot of fun playing with these guys. We're all very unselfish."...."We didn't want to be No. 1 for just a week," Wilson said. "We came in here thinking we had to get a victory and stay undefeated."
Quote:
Senior forward Robert Wilson had 18 points and eight rebounds for the Bulldogs.
Quote:
Bulldogs' senior forward Robert Wilson, a Wisconsin recruit, played just 10 minutes in the first three quarters due to foul problems.
Wilson scored 11 points.
Quote:
(against Elvira, #24 in Ohio) Garfield senior forward Robert Wilson connected on eight 3-pointers on his way to 34 points.

“We have special players,” said Garfield Heights coach William “Sonny” Johnson. “Robert Wilson is one of them. What a display. He put on an unbelievable show.”(from same Elvira game)

(in 1 point upset loss) Senior guard Robert Wilson led the Bulldogs with 21 points.
Against #11 Bedford, didn't post a notable statistical line.

Quote:
(to win conference championship) Wilson, a 6-5 senior guard-forward and Wisconsin recruit, scored 26 points and grabbed 14 rebounds. He made 10 of 16 shots and showed his versatility by hitting 2 of 3 3-pointers and making three dunks. The final throw-down came off an alley-oop pass from Anthony Steplight......"It’s fun, the best feeling," Wilson, averaging 18.5 points, said of the Bulldogs’ offensive prowess. "It just takes teamwork. When we do things the way we’re supposed to, we click."
Quote:
(state tournament win)6-5 senior guard Robert Wilson, a Wisconsin recruit, tallied 12 points.
"‘Tay’ and Rob are getting double-teamed a lot and teams are leaving me open," Brown said. "My job is to knock down shots and get rebounds."


- Wilson scored ten points during their loss in the state tournament.

- Wilson was a complimentary player on King of the Court Team featuring star prospect Delvon Roe

Here's a slew of 17U King of the Court AAU videos from last summer. I have no clue which # Wilson is, or if he's even in the footage. Maybe someone else can fill me in.
