Jorden Georgaklis-Cunningham, 6’7 F – West Island Lakers (Montreal, CA) Class of 2025
With his combination of size and versatility, Jorden shows serious upside. He protects the rim intuitively + has nice footwork on the perimeter. Moreover, he cleans the glass and is a smart outlet. On the offensive end, Jorden can play inside/out. He’s comfortable moving the ball on the perimeter and in pnr, and his movement around the post is wise. I like Jorden’s potential as a versatile 4.
Jeremiah Watson, 6’3 F – Blueprint Basketball / Falcons Class of 2025
Jeremiah is that kid who outworks and outsmarts, and therefore, outplays. Watson is a raw southpaw, but regardless, he gets so much work done. He moves well around the post and finishes around the cup, plus, he’s always in pursuit of his own rebound or others. And defensively, Jeremiah is constantly working, communicating, and doing everything he can to protect the rim and secure possessions. So tough.
Grady Tacy-Munroe, 5’10 G – Blueprint Basketball Class of 2026
A natural 2-guard with his off-ball movement and 2-level scoring, Grady is coming along nicely. Tacy-Munroe’s ability to expose defensive gaps provides him ample looks to shoot off the catch. Yet when he sees hard closeouts, he attacks them and can finish inside or hit shooters/posts. And defensively he brings a ton of grit, guarding 1-3 with agility and physicality, plus he tracks down 50/50s and boards. Efficient and effective.
Mitchell Parkman, 6’0 W – Green Mountain Select Class of 2024
Parkman is someone who’s kind of positionless. You could consider him a point forward at times because he can defend numerous positions, inside or out, and rebound the rock. And once he’s got the ball, he can push and finish with strong slashes or set others up off of his drives. Moreover, he moves well off-ball. Mitchell can play tough inside, slash, and set others up with hard screens and dishes. Physical and always up for a challenge.
Brendan Moody, 5’8 G – Hardwick Mustangs Class of 2025
With combo-guard instincts. Brendan is able to serve as a facilitator or off-ball specialist. Moody handles ball pressure well and can organize the offense. Yet off ball he moves so wisely, often taking advantage of holes in the defense and unfocused opponents. Moody can fill it up with jumpers off the catch or attack close outs and make plays. Then defensively, he’s pesky with tight footwork. Brendan is all there.
