Nino Carter
The MVP for today’s Roundball Classic, Carter was unstoppable. He had a pair of early 3’s with plenty of assists and playmaking to go along with that. Truly a great performance that should give him confidence heading into league play.
Pheonix Glassnor
Glassnor quietly had a great game coming off the bench. Pheonix is tall and lengthy and guess what – Pheonix is only a freshman. With plenty of playing time now, with a ton of offseason work, Pheonix is looking at an insanely bright basketball future.
Tamario Adley Tamario Adley 6'0" | SG De La Salle | 2022 State MI
Adley got it done tonight with a great point total and plenty of rebounds. He’s a big body that can do a little bit of everything, but was mostly great in the paint.
Pershing #2
The venue did not offer rosters, and I cannot find any online information, so my apologies. Going into this game the obvious name to watch for the Doughboys was Hill, but #2 got in done from deep and went to the line twice hitting 2/4 FT’s. He really held the team up at some points and was crucial in a second-half run they went on.
Jeremiah Henderson Jeremiah Henderson 6'0" | PG Detroit PershingArts & Media | 2022 State MI
Henderson was another guy that was lethal from deep, hitting 2 three-pointers while scoring a few layups. The defensive pressure for Henderson was also there.
Tharren Hill Tharren Hill 5'11" | CG Detroit Pershing | 2022 State MI
Surely the most athletic on the court for the Doughboys, Hill did a good job slashing and getting to the line, but wasn’t able to get going early. It was obvious that it was a bit of an off night for him, but again, you could tell he has some talent.
