2023-24 Week 1: SEPA New Names to Know…Part II

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Below is Part II in our review of <em>“new”</em> prospects from southeastern Pennsylvania who made a name for themselves during Week 1 of the 2023-24 high school basketball season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Kessler Cox </strong><strong>– 6'3” / 2024 / Radnor / Point Guard: </strong>Cox is a wiry and crafty primary ball handler who can score off the bounce with ease. He also moves well without the ball which produces lay ins and floaters for him. Cox averaged 20 points per game across Radnor's two wins this past weekend. He pumped in 25 points (1 3PM) and grabbed in 8 rebounds in Saturday night's win over Avon Grove.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2427371' first='Jasir' last='Henderson'] </strong><strong>– 6'3” / 2027 / Sankofa Freedom Academy / Shooting Guard:</strong> Back in June, Henderson caught our attention at Philly HS Live with is two-way play making. This week in his varsity debut for SFA he again grabbed headlines by posting a double-double of 15 points and 10 rebounds. Henderson thrives in transition and can shoot the three. As a nice bonus, he can work in the paint and on the baseline for buckets.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1990920' first='Noah' last='McIntosh'] </strong><strong>– 6'5″ / Cardinal O'Hara / [program_tooltip program_id='2078678' first='East' last='Coast Power'] / Power Forward:</strong> McIntosh is a multi-skilled prospect who does it all for O'Hara. He can score from anywhere on the court, work the glass at both ends and get stops on defense. McIntosh pumped in 16 points and snagged 8 rebounds in O'Hara's season opener this past weekend. &nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1195829' first='Tyler' last='Nolan'] </strong><strong>– 6'1” / 2025 / Germantown Academy / Next Play / Wing:</strong> Nolan's reputation as a skilled “3&amp;D” wing proceeds him. In GA's first game of the season Nolan continued to splash triples as he recorded 14 points (4 3PM) and 5 boards in their 63-61 loss to Cardinal O'Hara. Nolan's handles are significantly improved, so look for him to work as a secondary ball handler at times this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2322780' first='Adam' last='Ziegler'] </strong><strong>– 6'4” / 2024 / Avon Grove / [program_tooltip program_id='2322977' first='610' last='City'] / Small Forward: </strong>Ziegler (FDU-Florham commit) does the bulk of his scoring damage as a traditional forward. He used post ups, dives to the rim and the offensive glass to produce points. However, watch Ziegler long enough and he will flash a jump shot that is accurate out to the arc. This multi-skilled forward registered 21 points and 6 rebounds against Upper Darby. Then 18 points to go along with 4 boards against Radnor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
