If he can:

Catch the ball.
Set a screen without moving his feet.

Then get him to Cleveland now!!!

The tweet is apparently from his dad...

translation:

My tall son, who has been working persistently, received his first invitation to the University today, reaching beyond anyone's reach in the country of Basketball.
My son's reaching this height at the age of 16 shows how much potential he has.

That's awesome.
Saw on his instagram where he's taken unofficial visits to Purdue and Illinois.

I don't know if there's a naming convention in Mongolian, something else with the translation, or if there is a half or stepbrother factor, but the dad has a lot of stuff on his Twitter about Mike Sharavjamts at San Francisco who transferred from Dayton. Apparently dad was also the first Asian Harlem Globetrotter.

Ghana is a teammate of Jon Sanderson Jr. at Saline. I don't think Ghana played this past year as it looks like there was a lot wrapped up in transfer rules.

Yes, the Tweet came from Sharavjamts dad. He is helping a lot of Mongolian kids hoop in the US. I think MIke was affiliated with Midwest Basketball Club. Centerville HS coach Brook Cupps is part of that (Bronny James and Gabe Cupps were teammates for years). Looks like Solongo is also part of Midwest Basketball Club if not necessarily eligible to play for Saline. Language was certainly an issue for Mike at Dayton.

Some footage. He has some P5 offers but not sure that I see a slam dunk difference maker at that level. Also he is now at a school in Tennessee since Sanderson took a job at Vanderbilt.

He is teammates with both the Sanderson kid and Coach Mark Byington's kid.

I'm not sure this gives Vandy an edge as Ohio State and Indiana seem to be in the picture too, people are saying. Plus if Vandy has a big season, Byington's name will come up in connection to lots of openings.

Verbal to Notre Dame. Sanderson is the new strength coach there.

He and Sanderson Jr. are now at La Lumiere School (of course they are). La Lumiere beats Ohio #1 Lakota West by one in OT at Flyin to the Hoop. Sanderson goes for 26 while Solongo plays three minutes and scores 0.

Also on La Lumiere are former Ohio offers Jacob Webber (formerly of Kearney HS Nebraska, a Purdue commit) with 22 points and Ferlandes Wright (junior committed to Louisville) with four points.

Is it much of a leap to think Lakota West might have a player or two we should offer?

Bryce Curry got a few power offers a few years ago but his latest activity is MAC schools. Get in before its too late.

Josh Tyson is probably out of our range now.

I was at the game. I could argue that Tyson and Curry outplayed La Lumiere's guards. Great game, UD head coach Anthony Grant was there. I ran into Anthony Munoz walking in. He has two grandsons playing for Moeller who dropped a close one to Akron SVSM.

Let's not get carried away. The kid is good, but he's no Quinn Corna.

On the "Nate Springs = Kevin Durant" scale, he might be Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

Just as the honorable mention all state kid from Reynoldsburg = Gilgeous-Alexander
