Andreas Fuller has been with Phenom Hoops for 5 years. He began attending events when he was 11 years old. Born at UNC Chapel Hill Fuller is a homegrown product of Tobacco Road, who has gone south. As far south as you can go Fuller has taken his talents too Admiral Farragut in St Petersburg, Florida. Fuller’s father was a high school basketball star growing up in St. Petersburg.
After only two months and eight games in a St Petersburg Fall League, Fuller has become a top 10 prospect in the 2018 class in the state of Florida. North Carolina, Virginia and South Carolina have a vested interest to keep tabs on him.
Fuller is a 6’6 point forward that can play the one, two, three or four positions. He can handle the ball as well as any point guard in Pinellas County . With great court vision outstanding passing skills and the ability to dribble penetrate and finish above the rim. No matter where coach Harmon Roldan, plays him he creates a mismatch for opposing teams.
Fuller carries freakish leaping ability ball handling skills and length with a wingspan of almost 7 feet make him a long time Phenom Hoops favorite, and one that Florida schools are glad to have.
Joining Fuller at Admiral Academy is Jeremiah Zio a 6’8 230 pound junior. With a body like Blake Griffin this young man remains under the radar. His list of attributes include being an all conference football standout so he brings mental and physical toughness to the front line. With two must-have attributes in a big man that can’t be coached good hands and quick feet, Zio has excellent timing making him a great shot blocker averaging 4 blocks a game when Phenom Hoops saw him this weekend in the Fall League.
Coach Roldan also has a stud in the backcourt with guard Cross Meehan. In addition to being able to score from anywhere on the floor, he is an excellent ball handler and passer. Fuller and Zio make a good living off the dimes Meehan drops. On the other end of the court, Meehan plays defense with an all business approach.
Coach Roldan and Admiral Academy moved from under the radar to one of the school’s to watch on the Florida basketball scene.
