Zo hit another gear down the stretch for us! I’ve seen this for years! Special talent!
Hear from Alonzo Verge after his great game for @SidelineTBT!
One of the states best young players!!! @CJPittman28
2028 6”0 CJ Pittman @CJPittman28 so shifty with the ball , finds such good angles getting to the basket. The well built guard plays so well through and into contact. Crafty floor general with the ball in his hand. Will look to build off a nice freshman year at Payton. @WolvesILL…
Some highlights from UAA session in Georgia last week @WolvesILL
2028 6”1 Aamir Smith @aamirsmith_ playing with a ton of energy. Big framed sophomore is all over the court for Geek Squad Elite. Finishes well through contact. Setting up teammates well. @ReggieBates4 @madehoops
Michigan Morez Johnson Jr. @morezjohnsonJr Has dominated inside during this game Vs. Canada up to 10pts & 5reb 3ast #FIBAU19
Keller has turned heads this June, notching 20 points against some of the states best teams! Two way guard who’s confident and battle tested! High level student, can go to any college academically! @kellermcgov
My highlights from Riverside-Brookfield Live Event…looking forward to the all academic camp this week at Babson! @ReggieBates4 @AIA_BILLY @AIAeliteboys @AllAcademicBB
The Morez Johnson Jr. hustle from both ends tho 😮💨 #FIBAU19

Really impressed with Gary 21st Century 6’8” 2027 C Kayleb Young (@Kayleb_baller32) Wide body and knows how to use it. Soft hands that catches everything and really good passer when the double team comes @Boys21st @Truth19111 @MacIrvinFire1
Damari Stephens Kenwood 2027 Asserted himself as a strong scoring threat. Skilled wing player who has good mobility with size. Can shoot or take you off the dribble. Made some high-level moves while attacking off the baseline. @scottybscout
