Philly HS Live S1: SEPA Weekend Standouts…Part IV

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Below is Part IV in our review of prospects from southeastern Pennsylvania (and beyond) who impressed during this weekend's action at Philly HS Live Session 1.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1576723' first='Mani' last='Sajid'] </strong><strong>– 6'4″ / 2026 / Plymouth Whitemarsh / [program_tooltip program_id='2078709' first='Team' last='Final'] EYBL / Shooting Guard:</strong> The development is Sajid's skill set over the last two years has been astonishing. When we first watched Sajid in the fall of his freshman year, he was simply an accurate stand still 3-point. At Philly HS Live he dominated games by scoring at every level, producing points in transition, rebounding, and playing tenacious defense. In a short, Sajid has become one of the most complete 2026 prospects in the region. The trifecta of Sajid's length, athleticism and deep bag of moves makes him a match-up nightmare for opponents. His 32-point performance vs. Union Catholic at Philly HS Live included 6 made triples. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1613878' first='RJ' last='Smith'] </strong><strong>– 5'9” / 2026 / Imhotep Charter / [program_tooltip program_id='2078709' first='Team' last='Final'] EYBL / Combo Guard:</strong> How good did this versatile guard play during Philly HS Live Session 1? Well, after the event he picked up offers from Bryant and Delaware State. So, Smith must have been pretty darn good. Smith is well known for his quickness and elusive handles that get him to the rim for lay-ins. But this weekend Smith showcased his elite 3-point shooting and college coaches took notice. He unleashed several step-back threes that were jaw dropping. With his jump shot clicking, Smith was an unstoppable offensive force at Philly HS Live S1. On defense Smith supplied relentless on-ball pressure all weekend.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1874234' first='Nasir' last='Williams'] </strong><strong>– 6'0” / 2025 / Sankofa Freedom Academy / [program_tooltip program_id='2078697' first='Philly' last='Pride'] Select / Combo Guard: </strong>After lighting up the spring circuit and producing tremendous runs at the Post &amp; Pivot Pre-Live event, Williams was impressive again at Philly HS Live. Williams is an ultra-speedy guard with tremendous change of direction dribbles. Plus, he can finish at the rim through contact. The combination of those assets made Williams an open court phenom at Philly HS Live. When the paced game slowed to a half-court contest, Williams drained threes and took advantage of high pick action to score off the dribble. Williams used his quickness and anticipation skills to repeatedly knife through passing lanes for steals.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Additional Standouts:&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2197741' first='Tygee' last='Clark'] </strong><strong>– 5'10” / 2026 / Cardinal O'Hara / RKH / Combo Guard</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Taj'Mir Miller </strong><strong>– 5'11” / 2026 / Milford (DE) / Delaware Explosion / Combo Guard</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2478651' first='Trevor' last='Rehm'] </strong><strong>– 6'8” / 2025 / Bishop Guilfoyle / PK Flash / Power Forward</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2028256' first='Brandon' last='Russell'] </strong><strong>– 6'5″ / 2025 / Archbishop Ryan / NJ Beasts / Small Forward</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Josiah “JoJo” Smuda </strong><strong>– 6'4″ / 2027 / Downingtown East / [program_tooltip program_id='2423459' first='PA' last='Hoops Academy'] / Power Forward</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
