Best Available Wings

Posted Friday, February 24th, 2017

The third part of our best available series focuses on the top wings still on the board in New England’s 2017 class. The list begins with Redemption Christian’s Chris Duarte, who at 6-foot-5 not only has good size but also the shot-making ability to give himself a major weapon. But Duarte is far from one-dimensional, and even doubles as a big combo-guard with his improved ball-handling and playmaking ability. As a big and versatile perimeter player, it’s no surprise that… READ MORE >

New England products have dominated college basketball news over the course of the last 48 hours as UConn sophomore Jalen Adams and Miami freshman Bruce Brown delivered back-to-back game winning shots for their respective teams on consecutive days. Sunday night, UConn traveled to Philadelphia to take on Temple. The Owls held a late 63-62 lead but UConn had one final possession with a sideline-out-of-bounds.

Mattos Lands First D1 Offer

Posted Monday, February 20th, 2017

It has been a relatively long time since a prospect earned a division I scholarship out of the New Hampshire Interscholastic Athletic Association as the state's top local talent has a way of migrating into the prep ranks. Last week though, Kearsarge Regional High School's 6-foot-9 junior big man Tayler Mattos showed that he may well be on his way to becoming the exception. Mattos, who made his debut in the NERR 2018 rankings just a few weeks ago, has… READ MORE >
