Gabriel Sellers
Gabriel Sellers
Opponents have their work cut out for them with this one. Gabriel plays like he invented up-tempo transition. He played a defining role on his high school’s 7A Final Four team this past season. Gabriel does everything from starting fast breaks to serving up buckets triple-threat style. He has quick feet and can stop and change direction at the drop of a dime. He rips unassuming ball handlers effortlessly. This underrated senior is fast and plays the passing lanes well. What he may lack in height, he makes up for in scoring, strength, speed, and lock-down defense. We look forward to seeing this young man at the next level real soon.
Gabriel’s Favorite Sneaker: Kyrie Five Low’s

The first time we saw this talent play this year was at Adidas Southeast tryouts in March.He ended up being a great addition to Team Parsons CP25! Joviel drives and shoots with finesse, but also makes it a point to get his teammates the ball. He passes it off to get it back; he moves well without the ball and knows his place on the floor. Running passing lanes is an art for him. The Puerto Rican National Team is lucky to have him.

Omar is a straight bully. He bulldozes the lane and lays everything but bricks. A star and a finishing machine, Jordin has been averaging 19 PPG these past several weeks for Adidas Southeast Team Parsons CP25. He shows up to show out… so, get your popcorn ready! His senior year will be full of outstanding plays on both ends of the floor.

Jordin Bell Jordin Bell
Jordin Bell Jordin Bell
Jordin has a solid weight to his stature. He is not easily shoved aside or knocked over. He loves to pull up for three but also has a consistent mid-range shot. He is a natural driver that can penetrate and dish like a true point guard. He looks like he has learned some good technical basketball IQ along the way. He plays with his hands up, and head on a swivel. His mastery of micro-skills will make coaches turn their heads.
Jordin’s Favorite Sneaker: Nike Kobe’s

Chris has favorable defense that makes guards think twice when executing moves. On the other end, he is very difficult to defend, due to his quickness and innate ability to see one play ahead. This kid gets doesn’t mind a little contact in the lane and again, is all the way live on defense! He leaves a path of unidentifiable victims in his wake. That path of destruction is real. We anticipate he will be a standout to look for during his upcoming junior season.
