This past week we had some exciting battles between several stellar teams here in Seattle WA. The following players were in their bag and provided impressive performances for their respective squads.
Nahmier Robinson Nahmier Robinson 5'10" | PG Skyline | 2023 State WA | Rainier Beach ’23
Nahmier is a fantastic floor general at the point guard position for his Vikings squad, with a knack for spotting open teammates and getting them the ball in-rhythm for good looks. The sophomore guard is also a high-level ball handler with the ability to maneuver past defenders and get to his spots for effective shot attempts. In Beach’s matchup versus O’Dea on May 25, Nahmier finished with a game-high 19 points and a pair of steals.
Nuer Bol | Rainier Beach ’21
With his Vikings squad down in the fourth quarter of May 25’s contest between Beach and O’Dea, Nuer rose to the occasion and delivered a series of big-time baskets down the stretch that galvanized his teammates and propelled a Beach comeback that forced a tie-game at the end of regulation. The senior wing shot with great confidence from the perimeter—knocking down 3 three-pointers in that fourth quarter—and was also able to convert multiple looks attacking the basket. His most electrifying plays came on the defensive end, however, in the form of high-flying, emphatic shot blocks that sent the home crowd into a frenzy. Nuer finished with 18 points and 3 blocks.
Dezjay Perkins Dezjay Perkins 6'0" | PG O'Dea | 2021 State WA | O’Dea ’21
Dezjay is spark plug for his Fighting Irish squad as the team’s sixth man. The senior guard provides both high energy and a well-rounded scoring threat. In O’Deas’s matchup versus Beach on May 25, Dezjay exhibited outstanding use of his 6 foot frame when attacking the basket to convert shot attempts, as well as fantastic shooting touch from the perimeter. He made what was ultimately the biggest mark of 2 any on Tuesday’s content by beginning the overtime period with a pair of clutch baskets that gave his Fighting Irish squad the early momentum that yielded a hardfought victory. Dezjay finished with 18 points—5 of which came in the opening minuet of overtime.
Danilo Petrovic Danilo Petrovic 6'3" | SG Roosevelt | 2022 State WA | Roosevelt ’22
Danilo has an exceptionally polished game for his age. The junior wing plays with formidable intensity on both ends of the floor and serves as the engine for his Rough Riders squad. In Roosevelt’s matchup versus Ingraham on May 26, Danilo displayed his high-level offensive capabilities—precision footwork in the paint to create and convert shot attempts, as well as excellent shooting touch. He plays well both on & off the ball and is a fierce rebounder on both ends. In Wednesday’s contest, Danilo finished with 21 points, 5 rebounds, and a pair of steals.
Ja’Von Ervin Ja’Von Ervin 6'3" | SG Ingraham | 2021 State WA | Ingraham ’21
Ja’Von is an elite-level guard with and outstanding skillset. In Ingraham’s matchup versus Roosevelt on May 26, the senior point guard exhibited spectacular ball handling skills, as well as a masterful ability to penetrate defenses and absorb contact/covert shots when attacking the basket. He was able to take over the the game late in Wednesday’s contest, securing a victory for his Rams squad with a barrage of converted free throws and tough finishes at the rim amid a resilient comeback effort by the Rough Riders.
