Lil’ Romeo Signs Basketball Scholarship to USC
Rapper Lil’ Romeo, son of Master P, has been awarded a basketball scholarship to the University of Southern California.
Lil’ Romeo, whose full name is Percy Romeo Miller, is currently a senior guard at Beverly Hills High who averaged 13.9 points and 5.6 assists last season. His father, hip-hop mogul Master P, had tryouts with two NBA teams in the 1990s.
“This is the most important thing I’ve had to do and hopefully it sends a message to kids across the country that education is more important than money,” Miller said at the news conference. “Getting a college scholarship is more important than winning an American Music Award, and I plan to be the best student-athlete I can be at USC.”
Romeo has been rated nationally as one of the top fifteen point guards. Rivals.com doesn’t rate him as high but still has him as a two-star b-ball recruit.
