Dylan Harper Dylan Harper 6'6" | SG Don Bosco Prep | 2024 State #3 Nation NJ , 6’5 G Don Bosco Prep 2024
Harper stole the show at the NJ Tip as he put up a game high 25 points for the Ironmen in the 52-47 win. The 6’5 lefty could not be stopped in the second half as he was constantly getting to the rim and finishing around the basket. Harper was able to get to this spot on the floor and rose up with confidence on his jumper. He got his teammates involved in the half court and pushed the ball in the open floor off of rebounds. Harper is one of the top players in the state and he showed why at the NJ Tip.
Nas Robinson Nas Robinson 5'9" | PG Linden | 2024 State NJ , 5’9 PG Linden 2024
Robinson was critical in Linden’s 49-41 overtime upset win of Manasquan as he made big plays for them down the stretch. The 5’9 guard used his lightning quick first step to blow by his defender and finish around the rim. Robinson rarely made bad decisions with the ball in his hands and was unafraid of taking big shots for the Tigers down the stretch. He got deflections on the defensive end and made it hard for the Warriors to get into their sets on offense. Robinson stepped up in a big way for Linden at the NJ Tip and should continue to show when the lights shine brightest for them.
Thomas Haugh Thomas Haugh 6'9" | SF Perkiomen School | 2023 State #117 Nation PA , 6’9 PF Perkiomen 2023
Haugh did a little bit of everything for the Panthers as they knocked off Blair Academy 71-66. The Florida commit was able to get to the rim from the perimeter and finished through contact. Haugh moved well without the ball in his hands and set his feet before he shot. He ripped down rebounds on both ends of the floor and made plays on the defensive end with his length. Haugh is a versatile forward prospect whose ability to impact the game in a number of ways makes him tough to guard every night.
Cameron Piggee Cameron Piggee 6'1" | PG Rutgers Prep | 2023 State NJ , 6’1 PG Rutgers Prep 2023
Classmate Jadin Collins Jadin Collins 6'1" | PG Rutgers Prep | 2023 State NJ had a strong game for the Argonauts as well, but Piggee took home the game MVP honors with his 25 points. The 6’1 guard was aggressive from the start as he attacked the basket strong and finished through contact. Piggee showed a good release on his jumper and rarely forced the issue in the half court. He showed the ability to play on or off the ball and was able to create turnovers on the defensive end. Piggee has started off his senior season with a bang and should continue to put up strong numbers as the season continues.
Augustine McGee Augustine McGee 6'3" | CG Elizabeth | 2023 State NJ , 6’3 CG Elizabeth 2023
McGee led the Minutemen with 20 points and was critical in their 63-57 win. The 6’3 guard was feeling it from distance as he knocked down six triples, including huge ones in the fourth quarter to seal the game. McGee had a quick release on his jumper, which made it hard for Union to contest his shot. He was strong on the glass and moved his feet on the defensive end. McGee’s ability to stretch the defense is something that will help Elizabeth throughout the course of the season.
