Manhattan Super Sixty-Four: #40-#33

<p>While most summer AAU programs are still canceled, colleges and basketball programs all over the nation are not stopping their current scouting offers and are continuing to hand out offers to quickly hammer out commitments. In this next installment of Manhattan's Super Sixty-Four, we take a look at more kids who could very well be receiving an offer in the near future.</p> <p><strong>40. Zaire Liang | Junior | East Side Community</strong></p> <p>Zaire Liang has been a force in the paint for the whole season, on both ends of the floor. His zone defense awareness allows him to consistently keep track of a body on defense and make sure nobody gets an unearned bucket in the paint. On offense, Liang can run the rim off screens, while he is a force on the putback glass and always ready for a bucket in the paint.</p> <p><strong>39. Brian Canela Herman | Junior | George Washington</strong></p> <p>Brian Canela Herman has excelled this year as a scorer. Canela Herman can bypass defenders, even with set feet, to make it easy for him to reach the basket. Canela Herman is able to cash in and stack fouls against the other team while making his free throws count. He can also shoot at a respectable clip, as well as defend all positions on defense.</p> <p><strong>38. Bryant Breton Brito | Sophomore | High School for Leadership and Service</strong></p> <p>Bryant Breton Brito has demonstrated that he is a guard who can play high school varsity. Brito is able to play both on ball and off ball. He can come off screens for the drive or a contested jump shot, while he can act as the primary playmaker and distribute the ball well, while he always has his own path to the rim. Brito is able to use quick hands and feet to pressure other guards on perimeter defense.</p> <p><strong>37. Tyrese Hardman | Junior | Urban Assembly for the Performing Arts</strong></p> <p>It is dangerous and misleading to place labels on the game of high schoolers, but Hardman has proved that he can be a point forward. Hardman's length, reach and athleticism allow him to physically guard from the center to point guard. On offense, these same qualities combine to be a nightmare for defenders who guard the penetrate, and it doesn't help that he can shoot too.</p> <p><strong>36. Muhammady Sylla | Freshman | Institute for Collaborative Education</strong></p> <p>Muhammady Sylla has shown an immense amount of skills in his game, and when combined with his current age as a freshman, it shows a good amount of future success. Even as a young freshman, Sylla was thrust into a starting guard spot, who is expected to be a leader on and off the court, and excelled. Sylla has shown that while high school action may be new to him, he knows when to take the right shots and which passes are the right passes.</p> <p><strong>35. Kelvin Nunez | Junior | Esperanza Prep Academy</strong></p> <p>Kelvin Nunez is one of the unheralded better guards in the PSAL, he has proved that this season. Nunez is able to lock down pesky guards on defense and score the ball through a shifty drive or a well placed shot. However, Nunez's best ability lies in the passing game. Nunez attempts passes other guards wouldn't dream of making, and his confidence and skill allows them to pay off.</p> <p><strong>34. Odanis Done | Junior | Manhattan Center</strong></p> <p>Odanis Done has demonstrated throughout the season that he can do it all. Done can rebound well on both ends of the floor, and when it is a defensive rebound he can use his speed to take the offense on a fastbreak. Done can also drive against a standstill defense, as well as facilitate the offense and shoot the ball. His best skill is his versatility on defense, allowing coaches to pair him with any lineup.</p> <p><strong>33. Liam Ogorman | Sophomore | Bard</strong></p> <p>Liam Ogorman's position is listed as a guard-forward, and once his game is looked at, it truly is accurate. Ogorman can score from a paint position or from the perimeter, whether it be him actively seeking a path to the rim or him in the corner, spacing the floor for others. Ogorman can guard the big 3 positions on defense, which is due to his speed and strength.</p>
