Demetri Lewis, Johnnie Vassar, Jonathan Joseph, Juwan Gooding (pictured above), Aaron Calixte, Charles Correa, Justin McDonald, Colin Richey, and Cornelius Tyson all stood out as players who have the talent and potential to be stars down the road.

He’s also a uniquely talented playmaker with a terrific feel for the game. Vassar is a super smooth and composed…

Perhaps no player in the gym had as much upside as 6’7” 8th grader Goodluck Okonoboh (pictured above). Okonoboh is Alex Oriakhi’s cousin and he plays a lot like the UConn bound big man as he has many of the same physical gifts along with a knack for blocking shots and finishing with dunks around the rim.
