2023-24 Suburban One: POY Watch List

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Below is Part I in our preview of SEPA prospects (Presented in alphabetical order.) we consider front runners to win the 2023-24 Suburban One League POY award.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1888851' first='Kobe' last='Bazemore'] </strong><strong>– 6'0” / 2026 / Upper Dublin / Philly Revolution / Point Guard: </strong>The wiry, fast, and athletic Bazemore will be called upon to score in bunches for UD this season. Good news, based on the standout performances we witnessed from Bazemore in June and July, he is ready for that new role. When he is out in transition, Bazemore is impossible to stop. In the half-court Bazemore can create off the bounce for himself or teammates. His 3-point shot is a developing asset too.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1116013' first='Jaden' last='Colzie'] </strong><strong>– 5'10” / 2024 / Plymouth Whitemarsh / BW Elite / Point Guard: </strong>A four-year starter, last season Colzie averaged 12 points, 3 assists and 3 steals per game last season while piloting “P-Dub” to the District 1-6A title. Still, we are expecting an even bigger senior campaign from Colzie as he will be option No. 1 for the Colonials this winter. Colzie is a three-level scoring machine, so he can easily fill that role. Plus, Colzie will continue to distribute at an elite level and provide menacing on-ball defense. &nbsp;<strong>&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1045684' first='Jacob' last='Cummiskey'] </strong><strong>– 6'3” / 2024 / CB East / Penn Warriors / Wing: </strong>In 2022-23 Cummiskey was a versatile, bucket getter who helped push CB East to 24 wins and an appearance in the 6A state tourney. Cummiskey is an extremely accurate three-point shooter (35%). But if opponents over play him on the perimeter, he will put the ball on the deck and get into the paint. Once in the lane, Cummiskey (14 ppg.) can produce points via pull-ups, floaters, and lay-ins through contact. Or, because he has a high IQ and an unselfish mindset, he can execute a kick out to an open shooter. Cummiskey (6 rpg.) is also a plus rebounder at both ends. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1200743' first='Norman' last='Gee, Jr.'] </strong><strong>– 5'10” / 2024 / North Penn / One Opportunity / Point Guard: </strong>This complete point guard does a tremendous job of knowing when to score and when to distribute. Gee proved last season in games like his 24-point (5 triples) outburst against Pennridge that can score from anywhere on the court. When he is not splashing threes, Gee can use his dribble skills to get to the rack. He is also difficult to stop in transition. As a distributor he thrives in the open court as well as in pick-n-roll and drive-n-kick plays. Gee is a high motor defender who appears to enjoy guarding for 94-feet.&nbsp; <strong></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1130829' first='Kirby' last='Mooney'] – 6'3” / 2024 / William Tennent / PA Royals / Combo Guard: </strong>After the 2022-23 season Mooney (23 ppg. &amp; 7.7 rpg.) was a 1^st Team All-League and 1^st Team All-Area selection. Still, because of the improvement in Mooney's jump shot, we are expecting a next level senior season from him. Mooney's jumper is now an effective asset from the baseline to the mid-range to the arc. He can now use his perimeter shooting to set up his dribble drive game. With his quickness and elusive handles, Mooney can get to the cup with ease. Once there, his sneaky hops allow Mooney to dunk on an opponent's head.    </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Part II coming soon...</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
