2023-24 Week 5: SEPA New Names to Know

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Below is our review of five <em>“new”</em> prospects from southeastern Pennsylvania who made a name for themselves during Week 5 of the 2023-24 high school basketball season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Nigel Adamson </strong><strong>– 6'5” / 2026 / Cristo Rey Phila. / Kings Unlimited / Power Forward:</strong> Adamson (formerly of Upper Moreland) is a long, athletic, and physical interior prospect. His offensive game has developed significantly since his move to Cristo Rey. He is extremely effective at scoring on post ups, dives to the cup and via the offensive glass. His has flashed a solid face up game too. Adamson possesses good rim to rim speed, so he can also be an option on the secondary break. Last week Adamson posted 10 points and 16 rebounds in a win over West Catholic.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1406764' first='Kahseem' last='Bronzell'] </strong><strong>– 6'2” / 2026 / West Chester East / Baker Hoops / Wing: </strong>Over his last three gamesBronzell is averaging 13.3 points per contest. Included in his recent stretch of play was an 18-point effort against WC Henderson. Bronzell is fast, athletic, and shifty. Therefore, he excels in transition where he will not hesitate to finish with authority. Additionally, Bronzell's 3-point shooting must be respected. &nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1990912' first='Elijah' last='Espinosa'] </strong><strong>– 6'9” / 2024 / Red Land / York Ballers / Small Forward: </strong>Thisathletic and wiryhybrid forward thrives in the dunker spot. Espinosa (11 ppg. in last 3 contests) can also slash to the cup for a catch and lay-in or an alley-opp. With his enormous wingspan, nose for the ball and quick second jump, Espinosa rebounds well at both ends. Thus, he is a double-double threat every night. Espinosa runs the floor extremely well and is an intimidating shot blocker too.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2322859' first='Carlton' last='Gordon'] </strong><strong>– 6'3” / 2024 / Chichester / Shooting Guard: </strong>This three-point sniper is having a fantastic senior campaign. Last week Gordon posted two 20-point games. The first 20-spot came against Garnet Valley. The second was a 22-point effort that came vs. Bishop Shanahan. In that contest Gordon pumped in 6 threes. Gordon's jump shot possesses a quick trigger and logo range.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Quinn O'Hara </strong><strong>– 5'10” / 2024 / Garnet Valley / PSB Philly / Combo Guard: </strong>Over his last two runs, O'Hara has posted 12 points per game. He does an impressive job of establishing his 3-point shot to set up his dribble drive game. Once O'Hara has drained a couple of treys, he will execute a head / ball fake to get a defender off balance. He will then put the ball on the deck and slice to the cup where he can finish with either hand. O'Hara also owns good instincts and court vision. That combination makes him an excellent distributor too.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
