Warren Keel Jr-G-2025-Springfield Commonwealth
Warren is a 5’10, 150 pound guard who is finishing out his 8th grade year. He is a very special talent. He currently plays on the 17U AAU team and contributes significantly. Warren has a good IQ for the game and is not afraid of the moment. Warren plays under control and can make shots behind the arc. He can handle the ball and find his teammates. On defense, he can keep up with older players. If he continues to improve making shots, he will be a highly recruited D1 player.
Tre Norman-G-2023-Worcester Academy
Tre is a 6’4, 190 pound guard who has good upper body strength and can handle the ball. Tre looks to attack the rim when he gets the ball. He will dunk on you if you get in his way. Tre can also make shots behind the arc. The two things that stood out to me, were his ability to find the open man and keep plays alive for his team. Because of his upper body strength, he can outrebound other guards. If he continues to work on his ball handling and quickness, he will be a D1 talent.
Derik Queen-F-2024-St. Francis Academy
Derik is a 6’8, 225 pound wing who can play at any position. Derik is a unique talent who has a high IQ for the game. On offense, he can handle the ball and see the floor well. He has a soft touch around the mid post, and can step out to shoot the three. On defense he is very disruptive do to his size and length. If he continues working on his upper body strength and quickness, I can see him playing on the D1 level, and possibly the pros.
Hunter Johnson Hunter Johnson 6'2" | CG Cardinal O'Hara | 2024 PA -G-2024-Cardinal O’Hara High School (PA)
Hunter is a 6’1 point guard who can score all around the court with his quickness and jump shot. He is very efficient and has a good shot selection. Hunter uses his ball handling well to create for himself and his teammates. You can tell that he understands the game because he doesn’t make a lot of mistakes. If he continues to improve his upper body strength, he will be a highly recruited D1-D2 player.
Dior Kennedy-G-2024-Coatesville High School
Dior is a 6’2 shooting guard who can consistently make big shots behind the arc, and loves to compete. He has the ability to run, shoot, and penetrate on the offensive break. He can handle the ball well and find his teammates. On defense, he loves to defend. He can guard the 1-3 position. If he continues to work on his upper body strength and pick and roll offense, I can see him playing in D1-D2 programs.
