SEPA HS Scouting: Week 10 Standouts

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Below is a review of five prospects from southeastern Pennsylvania who played outstanding hoops during Week 10 of the 2022-23 high school basketball season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1189096' first='Jalil' last='Bethea'] – 6'4'' / Junior / Archbishop Wood / Team Final EYBL / Shooting Guard:</strong> Widely considered one of the top shooting guards in the state, Bethea (21 ppg.; 40% on threes) has taken his game to yet another level here in early February. He began the month by scoring 23 points (5 triples), grabbing 8 rebounds, and handing out 6 dimes against Conwell-Egan. Then against LaSalle, Bethea poured in 28 points (2 threes). 13 of those points came in the decisive 4^th quarter. His improved ability to score off the dribble was on full display that night. Next, Bethea notched 18 points against Parkland. Bethea holds a truckload of DI offers including Miami, Villanova, UCLA, Notre Dame, and Rutgers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Earle Greer, Jr. – 6'7” / Senior / Rocktop Academy / Team Final Red / Combo Guard:</strong> This season, Greer has already hung a 50-burger as well as numerous 30-spots on opponents. So, it should come as no surprise that this past week he recorded a 40-point and yet another 30-point game. Greer is a creative offensive prospect who can score at all 3-levels. With his length and hops, Greer can play above the rim too. Division one offers have started to come in for Greer, but college coaches are still sleeping on this multi-talented prospect.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1178095' first='Jacen' last='Holloway'] </strong><strong>– 6'4” / Senior / Devon Prep / Prim3Tim3 / Small Forward: </strong>Holloway is a stretch-4 style player who torched Philadelphia Catholic League opponents last week. First Holloway registered 28 points (4 threes) and 7 rebounds vs. Cardinal O'Hara. Next, he stuffed the stat sheet against Archbishop Carroll for 25 points (2 threes), 14 boards and 3 assists. Finally, Holloway netted 22 points vs. Archbishop Ryan. Holloway is committed to Army and the Cadets got a stellar prospect.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Alasan Njie-Morgan – 6'5” / Junior / Phelps School / NY Jayhawks/ Wing: </strong>Njie-Morgan is an unbelievably athletic 2024 who has been flying under the radar. His recent stretch of outstanding performances should serve as his breakout onto the recruiting scene. Of late, this long athlete with an incredible wingspan and a watery jumper is averaging 24 points per contest. Highlighting this stretch of jaw dropping games was a 31-point effort vs. Mastery Camden (NJ). In his last two games Njie-Morgan has drained 19 threes. Opponents should pick him up at half-court because he will pull the trigger from deep.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1379585' first='Connor' last='Shanahan'] </strong><strong>– 5'11” / Senior / Downingtown East / Gibbs Elite / Shooting Guard:</strong> This past week Shanahan dropped 59 points in a double OT win over Avon Grove. 23 of those points came in the 4^th quarter. Shanahan also cracked the 1,000-poin mark for his career against Avon Grove. This was his second 50-point performance of the season (He scored 56 vs. Oxford last month.). Shanahan ended the regular season by averaging 26 ppg. over his last three contests. This Lycoming College (D3) commit can splash threes and is a creative finisher at the rim.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
