Carter Bobbitt Carter Bobbitt 6'4" | SF St James | 2024 State SC |6’2″ | G| Clearview 2024
Bobbitt went from a recess player to the star of Clearview High in just a few years. A local newspaper featured how he used to enjoy playing floor hockey, picked up a basketball in middle school and never looked back. He’s a good shooter from the perimeter and can also attack the basket as a bigger guard. He’s a hungry player who gets after it on defense and isn’t afraid to hit the floor for loose balls. He had numerous games over 20 points, including a season high 29 vs Deptford. He had a number of games with 10+ boards as well. He’ll be a prospect to watch the next two years and is already near 600pts. Barring injury, he’ll be a 1,000+ scorer.
Owen Denton Owen Denton 5'10" | PG Williamstown | 2023 State NJ | 5’11” | G| Williamstown
Denton emerged as a junior for Williamstown and showed himself to be a scoring threat, especially from beyond the arc. He’s a shooter but can also get at the rim. He’s a tough defender who stands in to take charges and came up with 30+ steals last year. His range extends beyond the college line. He had 24 vs Salem, 20 vs Gloucester Tech and 19 vs Timber Creek as top games his junior year.
Christian Mazzamutto | 5’11” | G | Williamstown
Another player who came on strong as a junior for Williamstown, Mazzamutto does a lot of the little things well. He’s a tough defender who is active, creates turnovers and rebounds well for a guard. A selfless player on offense who dished out nearly 100 assists last winter, he’s also capable of scoring when called upon. He had 25 vs Deptford and 23 vs Kingsway as his top games last winter. He and Denton form a solid 1-2 punch for Williamstown this winter.
Landon Eaton | 6’3″ | G | Williamstown
The third key returner for Williamstown, Eaton also had a strong junior year. He’s a multi sport athlete who also plays as a centerback on the WHS Soccer team. Tough defender(A centerback, who defends? Who knew!)–Seriously though, folks, he’s got quick feet and active hands to create turnovers. He’s got speed to get out in transition and finish around the basket. He averaged 12&7 as a first year starter and has a near perfect GPA. He had 22 vs Highland and 21 vs Shawnee last year.
Jahaan Green Jahaan Green 6'4" | SG Eastside | 2024 State NJ | 6’3″ | G | Kingsway 2024
Green made a name for himself last year as a breakout sophomore. He’s a long and lean guard who’s good out in transition, has solid ball handling skills and can knock down shots. He’s an active defender who can block shots. He has a solid pedigree from his parents being high level athletes themselves. Green had 28 vs Pennsauken and 23 vs Woodstown. He has a high upside and schools should be paying attention.
