6’8″ Teaneck forward Tyler Tejada Tyler Tejada 6'7" | SF Teaneck | 2023 State NJ (2023) has picked up several offers in the last few days. The schools who have stepped up and tabled an offer to the breakout rising senior in the last few days are Fairfield, Towson and Rider. Tejada has a strong game around the basket but can also turn and face a defender and take him out beyond the arc. He’s a hard worker on the defensive end and more offers will likely come before summer is over and he’s in line for a big senior year. Tejada had 19&14 vs Paterson Kennedy, 34&15 vs Saddle River Day and 22&15 vs Hackensack as top games as a junior.
6’3″ Arts guard Anthony Akande Anthony Akande 6'4" | SG Arts | 2024 State NJ (2024) just grabbed an offer from a quality program in Iona. He’s got good ballhandling skills and gets at the rim strong through contact. He can also hit it from beyond the arc. He’s part of an Arts core that will be very tough the next few years if they all stay together. He had 21&11 vs Orange as well as 13&11 vs Bayonne. Plays for the Jersey Force AAU.
