Brazil demonstrated the potential to be a professional scorer at the collegiate level. In isolation and PNR, he insisted on getting to the cup and welcomed contact when he got there. Brazil was also comfortable playing on the second side and shooting spot-up jumpers. He called game against the Utah Prospects, drilling a step-back three with less than 5 seconds left.
Carnell Henderson Carnell Henderson 6'2" | CG Imhotep Charter | 2025 State PA | Brad Wanamaker Elite HGSL
On a loaded BW Elite team, Henderson impacted every phase of the game. The combo guard defended exceptionally well at the point-of-attack and at the nail, effectively navigating screens and digging at the ball. When he created turnovers, Henderson also made the right play with outlet passes up the court. Conversely, Henderson sad aggressive within the flow of the offense, cashing spot-up jumpers and slashing to the basket when the land was open.
Justin Houser Justin Houser 7'0" | C Phelps School | 2025 State PA | We-R1 UAA
Although he showed flashes of skill stretching the floor and rolling off of ball-screens, Houser went to work on the block too. He fought for post position against players with a lower center of gravity and often won by either catching the ball and laying it up or drawing the foul. Houser was engaged defensively no matter what his offensive usage was. He blocked multiple shots per game.
Keni’ Williams Keni’ Williams 6'2" | PG SCH Academy | 2025 State PA | K-Low 3SSB
Williams’s uptempo style produced good results in transition. He created a host of fastbreak points on his own by keeping the defense off-balance with his ability to change directions with the ball at full speed. In the halfcourt, he showed he can get into the lane on his own or off-the-catch and change speeds inside the arc. Once Williams got to his spots, he finished off of one or two feet to make the play he wanted.
Nasir Williams Nasir Williams 5'11" | CG Sankofa Freedom Academy | 2025 State PA | Philly Pride Select
Nas carried a heavy scoring load for his team but he balanced it with playmaking. He showcased his craft and improvisational counters on the way to the hoop, evading multiple defenders as he hit touch shots over defenders. And when the defense tried to force the ball out of his hands, Williams stayed engaged on the second side. He relocated well off-ball, stepping into several catch-and-shoot threes.
