Syosset. vs Port Washington. 6 pm
Hempstead. vs. Baldwin. 8 pm
The sharpshooter from three continued his hot scoring putting up 30 in their quarterfinal matchup. The thirty was helped with 6 three pointers most from very deep range. He is able to get off his own shot. But he also moves really well without the ball. Can drain the three off the catch with a quick release.

AJ’s game is a little bit of everything. He has a great motor. Can defend multiple positions. Outstanding rebounding guard. Really good in transition or taking his defender off the bounce. He is very strong going to the basket and drawing fouls as he did many times in this playoff matchup.

Jaylen has the ability to be a stat stuffer. He plays the complete game. Can score it defend and rebound. Has a quick release and elevates well on his jumper. Strong and athletic getting to the rim. Really good in transition. Three level scorer. Jumps passing lanes with his quickness.
A really good young player will have a big impact in Nassau for the next couple of years. A scoring point guard. He can make the difference in a game in scoring or running the team. Excellent passer with outstanding vision and handles the ball really well. Rises to the occasion either in big games or down the stretch of games. But is good throughout. Wants the ball and wants to make the play to seal the win.

Ja’Mir picked the right game to explode. Sometimes a player just needs the big game to shine. Averaged 6 ppg this past season his main job was to handle the ball and the pressure of opposing teams. In this game he went for 22 points hitting 6 threes. Plays with a lot of emotion and confidence. This night it was fully on display.

Ziyair can really attack the rim. He can also create by drawing defenders and then kicking it to a teammate. He can finish through contact. Has the ability to drive the ball and draw fouls. Very capable from beyond the arc.
