Ahmad Crowell Ahmad Crowell 6'6" | C Manhasset | 2021 State NY . 6”3. 2021. Manhasset HS
This is a player college programs need to check in on. Tremendous rebounder and defender. Sees the floor well, great court vision. Has a nice handle and makes terrific passes. With all these great fundamentals he finishes it off with his shooting beyond the arc.
James Morris 6”6. 2023. Manhasset HS
Played on varsity as a freshman. Injured his shoulder but has rehabbed and will be ready to go when we start. Athletic player. Has really good hands. Good instincts for a young player. Clears the glass on both ends. Has a nice jump shot with good rotation. Excellent defender. A little raw right now but as he gains more varsity game experience will be a player to watch for the next few weeks.
Michael Warren Michael Warren 6'1" | SF Malverne | 2021 State NY . 5”9. 2021. Malverne HS
Crafty player weaves his way to the basket. Smooth handle. Unlimited range. Lights out shooter off the catch. Needs to work on a quicker release.
Kamren Denhart 5”10. 2022. Sewanaka HS
Explosive first step. A pure scorer. Can score in bunches. Has an elusive handle. High basketball IQ. Has an excellent mid-range game. Working on expanding his range.
Dakari Thomas Dakari Thomas 5'10" | CG St Anthony | 2022 State NY s. 6”3. 2022. Sewanaka HS
Very versatile player. Has the skill set to play the 1-2-3. Can also guard multiple positions. Crafty getting to the rim. Good defender. Improving with his perimeter shooting.
Jeff Douby 6”7. 2021. Baldwin HS
Athletic big. Good rim runner. Excellent rebounder. Uses his size to alter shots. A little raw but a lot of upside. Has worked on his back to the basket which will add another dimension to his game.
