Transfer Watch 2024: Part VI

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Elite prospects from southeastern Pennsylvania (and beyond) have begun the annual ritual of transferring high schools. With the NCAA transfer portal jamming up high school recruiting, we expect there will be a host of extremely talented players who switch schools this spring / summer. Many of them will reclass into a later graduate year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>At Prephoops.com we will do our best to track all the player movements and pass that information on to our readers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Below is the sixth installment in our Transfer Watch 2024 series.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2347935' first='Keyshawn' last='Franklin'] </strong><strong>– 6'2″ / 2027 / Archbishop Ryan / We R1 UAA / Shooting Guard:</strong> Franklin is a decorated backcourt prospect (All-Star selection at 2023 MADE Hoops East &amp; Pangos All-East events) who posted a solid freshman season at Eastern HS (NJ). Franklin is well known as an accurate 3-point shooter, but he can also get to the rack off the dribble. His ability to slash to the cup for a catch and lay-in is impressive too. He will be fantastic addition to a Ryan lineup that graduated all five starters. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Marquis Newson </strong><strong>– 6'4” / 2027 / Academy of New Church / [program_tooltip program_id='2078709' first='Team' last='Final'] EYBL / Combo Guard:</strong> During his freshman season at Sanford (DE) Newson averaged 12 points and 5.4 rebounds per game while shooting 52% from the field. In February, Newson posted a season high 22 points (3 threes) against Caravel Academy (DE). He is an ultra-quick perimeter prospect with a long wingspan and the skills to score at every level. With this addition, ANC's 2024-25 roster looks scary good.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2478623' first='Julian' last='Phillips'] – 6'3” / 2025 / Phelps School / PA Royals / Wing:</strong> In 2023-24 Phillips was a highly accurate three-point threat for Central Bucks West. This past season against Methacton, Phillips drilled 6 threes on his way to 24 points. Additionally, he posted multiple games where he made three or more treys. Phillips was also a plus rebounder at both ends of the court. His tremendous senior season was recognized with 1^st Team All-Suburban One League and 2^nd Team All-Bucks County selections. Next, Phillips will take a post graduate year at Phelps.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2226362' first='Kevin' last='Saenz'] – 6'4” / 2025 / Spire Institute (OH) / PMT Warriors / Shooting Guard:</strong> During his senior year Saenz contributed 17 points, 6 assists and 5 rebounds per game for Exeter HS. That stat line earned him a 1^st Team All-Berks Conference selection. Now Saenz is headed to Spire Academy for a post graduate year. Spire is getting a ridiculous athlete with an extremely versatile skill set. Saenz can knock down threes, score off the bounce and finish a fast break with authority. On defense, he is extremely switchable.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
