Robert Eaves, 6’5 Hightstown
Eaves is set for a big final season with the Rams as he knows how to control the paint. The 6’5 forward plays with good footwork down low and has a soft touch around the basket. Eaves can pass out of double teams and has a nice release on his free throws. He is tough to box out on both ends of the floor and holds his ground on the defensive end. Eaves is a tough forward prospect whose ability to finish around the basket will help his stock in a big way.
Anthony Aririguzoh, 6’6 Hun
Aririguzoh had a strong summer for Rens United and it should carry over into the winter season. The 6’6 forward runs the floor hard and knows how to get open in the half court. Aririguzoh has a nice touch around the basket and is capable of finishing through contact. He uses his length to create an impact on the defensive end and is a strong rebounder. Aririguzoh has the potential for a breakout 2022-23 season with his ability to make plays at both ends of the floor.
Harmehar Chhabra, 6’5 South Brunswick
Chhabra was solid for the Jersey Force all summer as he does what it takes at both ends of the floor. The 6’5 forward knows how to get position down low and is a good finisher around the basket. Chhabra moves well without the ball in his hands and sets good screens in the half court. He fights for rebounds on both ends of the floor and rarely makes mistakes with the ball in his hands. Chhabra is a gamer who makes winning plays for his team at both ends of the floor.
Treyvon Watson, 6’8 Paterson Eastside
Watson made an impact with the All-In Beasts this summer as he manned the interior. The 6’8 forward is a good shot-blocker as he uses his combination of size, length and athleticism to influence shots around the basket. Watson is active on the glass at both ends and runs the floor hard. He sets good screens in the half court and is developing more confidence on the offensive end. Watson’s ability to protect the paint is something that will help his stock in a big way this winter.
Quinn Peters, 6’6 Manasquan
Peters was the first big off the bench for Manasquan last season and fits in nicely into the starting lineup. The 6’6 forward is comfortable playing on the perimeter as he has a nice release on his jumper and can knock down open jumpers from behind the arc. Peters can also finish around the basket and knows how to get position. He is a solid rebounder and is an underrated interior defender. Peter is a stretch-four prospect whose ability to play both on the perimeter and the interior will help his game nicely.
