Player Standouts at Day Two of Tyler Lewis Hoop Fest

6’7 ’23 David Peral (Mount Tabor) Various players have shown progression within this Spartan roster, but Peral’s growth has been truly unbelievable. Since the start of the travel ball season, arguably no player has improved more. He’s a scrappy, low-maintenance big man who understands how to play hard, do the dirty work, and outplay his assignment on both ends of the floor. Peral effectively...

Prospects in the Class of 2023 Worthy of Offers

In order to skip any unnecessary formalities, we are going to assume you’ve been around long enough to know that the recruiting landscape is currently broken.

Player Standouts at Phenom Spring Tip-Off

6’8 ’23 Dejuan Sidney (Juice All-Stars) Commonly known for their slew of up-and-coming talent, it should come as no surprise to see Sidney as another name worth noting within the Juice All-Stars program. He’s a long, mobile forward/post prospect with nice length and an active motor. Sidney can finish as needed but doesn’t look to force the offensive action. He rebounds, blocks shots, and looks...

POB’s Eye Catchers from Day 4 at Phenom Holiday Classic (Part 1)

2022 Niccolo Moretti (DME Academy): This being my second viewing of this young man, I’m starting to become a big fan of what he provides and how he operates on the court.  He may have the best vision and touch in finding his teammates at the event, delivering precise dimes to his teammates, showing a shifty game as a ball-handler, really plays at a great pace, and also can create his own...
