Continue ReadingThe Class of 2025 is just beginning to take shape. As we know, talent is never short in South Florida. The following group should have an impact across the area for a long time. This list does not include names like Cameron Boozer and Cayden Boozer or Alexander Lloyd. Oh, don’t forget about Shon Abaev either. There will be plenty of time to talk about them in the future.
Let’s dive in…
Romari Robinson – Miami High
Robinson is a 6-foot-4 guard for the Stingarees. His size is already impressive and he has ball skill in the halfcourt. He’s going to be a problem to square up on considering his frame. Robinson can score off the dribble and excels at attacking the rim. On defense, his length will cause problems in the backcourt. Opponents are going to have a tough time creating on this kid. Robinson has advanced skills at this stage of his development. He has been offered by Florida International.
Alex Pierre-Louis – Coral Springs
Pierre-Louis is a 6-foot-3 guard/forward for the Colts. He has good size at this point to play multiple positions. I’d let him play and see where he fits best. The nice thing about all these kids is they have plenty of time to develop. Point guard Tavian Nellie is another kid to watch for the Colts. Nellie is very quick coming out of the backcourt. He’s going to be a problem to defend and be a playmaker going forward. 6-foot-2 guard Jevah Chervin and 6-foot-3 guard Semari Reed have talent and length. Coral Springs appears to have a bright future.
Carl Jenkins Jr. – St. Augustine
2025 small forward Carl Jenkins Jr. is a name to watch up the coast. He’s already 6-foot-1 and should get bigger. Jenkins Jr. can score anywhere around the court and has great vision for a frontcourt player. I really like his passing around the low post. Jenkins Jr. can shoot the three as well. A nice all-around player that should only get better.
Anthony Knowles – Mater Lakes Academy
Anthony Knowles is already a seasoned varsity player after appearing in nine games for SLAM Miami. The 5-foot-8 (and growing) guard will now show that experience with Mater Lakes Academy. At SLAM, Knowles averaged 11.2 points per game while shooting 35 percent from the perimeter. This kid has some bounce in his step at a young age. I expect him to beat kids off the dribble with his athleticism. Knowles’ shooting will continue to round out with the Bears. He’s playing on a talented young team so he should have plenty of opportunity.
