Once the winter approaches these young men will be top players in the area on the court, just like on the field. Here at Prep Hoops PA, we enjoy promoting not just the basketball-focused prospects, but the all-around athletes who bring hard work in other sports as well.
DJ Walker DJ Walker 5'10" | PG Aliquippa | 2023 State PA / 6’1 shooting guard / Aliquippa High School / Rising Senior
- An extremely skilled guard with the ability to “take over” games in critical moments and lead his team. Watch for his senior year to be a fitting end to an outstanding career on the hardwood for the Quips. DJ will be a division 1 football player upon graduation but could play basketball at the next level if he chose that opportunity.
Jayvin Thompson Jayvin Thompson 6'2" | SF Central Valley | 2023 State PA / 6’2 wing forward / Central Valley High School / Rising Senior
- This long, athletic wing has the talent to score in a variety of ways during a game. When he was younger basketball was his main sport, but football became the number one go-to sport due to his division 1 recruitment. Jayvin will be the leader of his CV Warriors this season on the hoop court.
Cam Lindsey / 6’2 power forward / Aliquippa High School / Rising Junior
- A strong, tough football player that uses his strength to own the post as a basketball player every time he steps on the floor. His ability to defend at a high level makes him an intimidating force for his opponents. Cam will put forth his best effort in both football and basketball but will play on the gridiron at the division 1 collegiate level.
Parker Lyons Parker Lyons 6'1" | SG Rochester | 2023 State PA / 6’1 shooting guard / Rochester High School / Rising Senior
- Not only is he a leader on the field for his school, but he leads his peers on the court as well. His high basketball IQ makes him a qualified coachable performer for the Rochy Rams while being an extension of a coach on the floor. Parker has a variety of opportunities for football from college coaches, but still has a passion for hoops.
Brandon Banks Brandon Banks 5'11" | SF Aliquippa | 2024 State PA / 6’0 combo guard / Aliquippa High School / Rising Junior
- An intelligent basketball player that excels not just on the court, but on the football field. Look for his recruitment to continue to develop in division 1 as a football player while still working hard on the court for his Quip teammates. Brandon will play football at the college level but enjoys the game of basketball.
Jerome Mullins / 6’2 wing forward / Rochester High School / Rising Senior
- His athleticism makes him stand out on the court on both the offensive and defensive ends of the floor. When he brings the tenacity and aggressiveness from the field to the gym this young man can take over a game. Jerome will participate in football at the next level but would like to continue getting up and down the court on a nightly basis.
