BasketBull Boston Hoopfest - Sunday Blog
NERR scout Jared Exler was on hand at the BasketBull Boston Hoopfest which was held at The Track at New Balance.
In case you missed any of the action, here is a rundown from him on some of the Sunday standouts.
Will keep tabs on 2024 @CWB20 & @HackleySchool big man Ian Randall. He has a nice blend of size, pick and pop ability, as well as touch around the rim. pic.twitter.com/iAOQWcFCNL

2025 @thebabc & @RidgefieldHS big man Dylan Veillette can space the floor from long-range on spot-up attempts, score effectively around the basket with either hand, and uses his wide frame well on the glass to be a solid defensive rebounder. pic.twitter.com/WWpsKta3ms

2024 @PhillyPrideAAU Select & @CRPHS guard Amari Dow has nice touch as a standstill three-pointer shooter or when flashing to the mid-post, a sturdy frame to take bumps around the rim and finish, in addition to having good instincts cutting off the ball. pic.twitter.com/LR2yJBN9oH

2024 @PhillyPrideAAU Select & @fkdforlife guard Amir Nelson is an impressive on ball defender with his lateral quickness/active hands, has good feel as a passer in the half-court, and needs to be accounted for from beyond the arc. pic.twitter.com/DoeyQ5wSA4

2023 @EmpireYouthAthl & Copiague HS (NY) shooting guard Malachi Moore has sharp handles for shot creation, a propensity for drawing contact around the rim, and good burst/vision to create for himself or others in transition. pic.twitter.com/WoI9dxGj4G

Merlin Gogolin, a 2023 from @ProLevelTitans & Hunter College HS (NY) stood out again last game set. The sharp shooting forward hit four three-pointers while also showing some ball skills attacking closeouts to draw fouls around the rim. pic.twitter.com/3IwwdAfJE8

2023 guard Marcos Montiel was terrific in the championship game to cap off a standout event. He helped his team win the title finishing difficult layups around the rim through contact, creating for others in the half-court, in addition to hitting standstill threes. pic.twitter.com/WxjwuVbJWr

2023 @ny_select & Hempstead HS (NY) guard Jakkai Stith uses his wide frame well bullying opponents to the rim for physical finishes, while also providing on-ball value as a secondary playmaker. pic.twitter.com/0WorZj5Gti
