Continue ReadingIt’s July, and that means AAU basketball right is around the corner. With the DMV considered a hotbed of hoops, there is no shortage of talent for college coaches to choose from. Here is a brief rundown of five local class of 2020 shooters to keep an eye on this month.
JARED CROSS | 6’3 SG | SSSAS/DISTRICT BASKETBALL CLUB
Cross is heading into this month with some serious momentum after picking up a few offers in June and dropping 27 in a win over DeMatha at DMV Live II. He will look to keep that hot hand with his AAU team up at Hoop Group.
MICHAEL KATSOCK | 6’5 SF | ST. ALBANS/TEAM TAKEOVER ORANGE
Katsock was one of the area’s leaders in made threes during his breakout junior year, and has parlayed it into a strong run of play during these last few months. Expect that to continue at Hoop Group this month.
MILTON MATTHEWS | 6’2 SG | ROCK CREEK CHRISTIAN/DC THUNDER
Another of the top marksmen in the DC Metro Area, Matthews is capable of hitting 10 or more threes in a given game. If he can do that in front of the right audience on the Adidas Gauntlet, his recruitment could go to another level.
ERIC SONDBERG | 6’5 SF | SOUTH RIVER/TEAM DURANT
Sondberg is a local sleeper who put up serious numbers at South River, and is starting to find his footing on the EYBL. If teams don’t properly game-plan for him at Peach Jam, we could see him taking advantage.
DIMINGUS STEVENS | 6’5 SG | WOODROW WILSON/TEAM TAKEOVER
Stevens is a big part of what Takeover likes to do offensively, and he’s been very efficient thus far. Look for him to play a major role if they hope to be successful in Augusta.
