Isaiah Gore Isaiah Gore 6'2" | PG Trenton Catholic Preparatory Academy | 2026 State NJ , 6’2 PG Trenton Catholic 2026
Gore is the Iron Mikes’ top returning scorer from last season and should put up even bigger numbers in 2023-24. The lanky 6’2 guard has a quick first step, which he uses to blow by his defender and can finish in a variety of ways around the basket. Gore has a nice handle and knows how to get to his spot on the floor in the halfcourt. He has the length to generate turnovers on defense and is an underrated passer. Gore is a long, guard prospect who should be a 2026 prospect to watch in Central Jersey.
Tre Powell Tre Powell 6'0" | SG Medford Tech | 2024 State NJ , 6’0 SG Medford Tech 2024
Powell had a monster junior season for the Jaguars and should have an even bigger senior season. The 6’0 guard has a tight handle as he routinely beats his defender off the bounce and finishes through contact around the basket. Powell is more than just a slasher as he can get hot from distance in a hurry and has a quick release on his jumper. He threads passes to open teammates in the halfcourt and plays with good instincts on defense. Powell poured in 15 20-point games last season and should finish 2023-24 with around that number.
Noah Harvey Noah Harvey 5'8" | PG Cinnaminson | 2025 State NJ , 5’8 PG Cinnaminson 2025
Harvey’s collegiate future is on the diamond, but he makes plays on the hardwood as well. The Richmond baseball commit has a smooth release on his jumper and can knock down triples in bunches. Harvey can also put the ball on the floor and has a nice touch on his floater. He makes good decisions with the ball in his hands and gets deflections on defense. Harvey is a sharpshooting guard prospect who should torch the nets again this season for Cinnaminson.
Adrian Lemons Adrian Lemons 6'3" | SF Pemberton | 2024 State NJ , 6’3 SF Pemberton 2024
Lemons had a solid junior season for the Hornets and should put up bigger numbers in 2023-24. The 6’3 forward has a nice shooting stroke and makes opponents pay for giving him space behind the arc as he had four games with at least four made threes in 2022-23. Lemons moves well without the ball in his hands, freeing himself for open jumpers and layups in the halfcourt. He is a solid rebounder and is an underrated rebounder. Lemons’ ability to stretch the floor is something that will help his stock in a big way this season.
Samir Wellington Samir Wellington 5'9" | PG Holy Cross Prep | 2024 State NJ , 5’9 PG Holy Cross Prep 2024
Wellington is the Crusaders’ top returning scorer and has the potential to breakout. The 5’9 guard shoots the ball with confidence from behind the arc and sets his feet before he shoots. Wellington rarely forces shots in the halfcourt and finishes nicely around the basket. He has the ability to play off the ball as well and is an underrated defender. Wellington is a gritty guard prospect who will be leading Holy Cross Prep’s offense throughout the 2023-24 season.
