In anticipation of this, we will be rolling out preview content over the next several weeks. Here is a look at the Preseason All-Junior Team for DC Public Schools.
G – Kyle Gaskins Kyle Gaskins 6'1" | PG Coolidge | 2022 State MD
Gaskins gutted out a respectable sophomore campaign despite being plagued by a persisting knee injury. He’s looked healthy all summer and should be able to lead an up-and-coming Coolidge squad this season.
G – Sekou Sidbury Sekou Sidbury 6'5" | CG Dunbar | 2022 State MD
Sidbury has seen his grow steadily over the years at Dunbar. The lanky guard prospect will have gained enough experience by now to become a nightly impact player.
G – Phillip Flegler Phillip Flegler 5'10" | CG Theodore Roosevelt | 2022 MD
Flegler has established a reputation as one of the premier on-ball defenders in the city. Roosevelt’s lockdown specialist relishes guarding the opposing team’s best man every night.
F – Darren Buchanan Jr. Darren Buchanan Jr. 6'7" | PF Woodrow Wilson | 2022 State #101 Nation MD
Buchanan is the reigning player of the year in the city, and will once again be a linchpin at Wilson. Expect him to be a difference-maker on both ends in each game.
F – Stephaun Walker Stephaun Walker 6'7" | PF Coolidge | 2022 State MD
Walker has the credentials to challenge Buchanan for the player of the year award. He is certainly an elite defensive player with an underrated offensive repertoire that will only improve moving forward.
