Hudson also has the ability to play the point, making him one of the more intriguing prospects in the class. The 6’1 guard attacks the basket with a purpose as he finishes strong and is unafraid of contact. Hudson can also score in the mid-range and sets his feet before he shoots. He moves well without the ball in his hands and is an underrated passer. Hudson is a slashing guard prospect who has the potential to make noise this season with his ability to finish at the rim.
Kevin Pikiell Kevin Pikiell 6'3" | SG CBA | 2025 State NJ , 6’3 CBA
Pikiell has had a strong fall and should carry it over into the winter. The 6’3 guard is able to get to his spot on the floor and rises up nicely on his jumper. Pikiell moves well without the ball in his hands, freeing himself for open layups and jumpers. He is unselfish with the ball in his hands and is an underrated defender. Pikiell should make a big impact this season as he will have the ball in his hands more in 2023-24.
Myles Parker Myles Parker 6'7" | SG Rutgers Prep | 2025 State NJ , 6’5 Rutgers Prep
Parker can also play on the wing, making him a player to watch on the perimeter. The 6’5 lefty has a smooth release on his jumper and can get hot from distance in a hurry. Parker is more than just a shooter as he can also put the ball on the floor and finish around the basket. He has the length to defend multiple positions on the floor and can push the ball well in transition. Parker is a lanky, wing prospect whose ability to stretch the floor is something that will help his stock in a big way this season.
Jarrell Harmitt Jarrell Harmitt 6'1" | SG Teaneck | 2025 State NJ , 6’1 Teaneck
Harmitt will have the ball in his hands more this season, which will help his stock in a big way. The 6’1 guard attacks the basket strong as he finishes well around the basket and can make layups through contact. Harmitt can also score in the mid-range and has a good release on his free throws. He is a tough on-ball defender and is a good rebounder for a guard. Harmitt is a gritty guard prospect whose ability to get into the lane will help him put up point in 2023-24.
Anthony Pacciarelli Anthony Pacciarelli 6'3" | SG St. Joseph (Mont.) | 2025 State NJ , 6’3 St. Joseph (Mont.)
Pacciarelli had a strong sophomore season and should have a big junior campaign. The 6’3 guard has a clean release on his jumper and sets his feet before he shoots. Pacciarelli uses his handle to get into the lane and finishes well around the rim. He makes good decisions with the ball in his hands and is an underrated defender. Pacciarelli’s ability to stretch the floor is something that will help his stock in a big way this season.
