AC Jam Fest: Additional SEPA Standouts

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Below is a review of prospects who impressed during action at the Hoop Group Atlantic City Jam Fest.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2643837' first='Nico' last='Antoniacci']– 6'0″ / 2028 / Riverside / [program_tooltip program_id='2245515' first='NEPA' last='Elite'] / Combo Guard: </strong>After impressive runs at Philly HS Live in June (incl. 31-point effort on 7 3PM), this 2028 prospect created a huge buzz in Atlantic City by “playing up” in 16U age group and crushing it. On Thursday this multi-skilled, high IQ guard torched BW Elite with his scoring and distributing. Then on Friday, Antoniacci splashed 6 threes on his way to 28 points against Marston Elite. When he was not draining triples, Antoniacci got out in transition and scored through contact. In the half-court Antoniacci used his tight handles and court vision to create for himself and teammates. As a bonus to his tremendous skills, Antoniacci is extremely poised for his age and is a vocal leader too.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2400241' first='Jalyn' last='Hopkins'] </strong><strong>– 6'6” / 2026 / West Philly/ BW Elite / Small Forward: </strong>Hopkins is a big and physical interior prospect with a soft touch around the rim. When he catches the ball in close, Hopkins can score over either shoulder. Hopkins is also effective on quick post ups where he can use one or two dribbles to back his man down and then score off the glass. This hybrid-forward is athletic and a solid rim runner, so he is a secondary break option. With his nose for the ball and quick second jump, Hopkins is a workhorse on the offensive glass who can convert on second chance opportunities. On defense, Hopkins is a monster on the boards and an intimidating weak side shot blocker.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Brayden Martin – 6'3” / 2027 / Upper Moreland / Penn Warriors / Points Guard: </strong>College coaches love floor generals with size and three level scoring skills. Good news, Martin possesses both of those items as well as all the intangibles. Martin has textbook mechanics on his jump shot and can knock down spot up or off the dribble threes. He can get to the rim off the dribble where and when score with his left or right hand. Martin can also use high pick action to score off the bounce. His high IQ and court vision make him an excellent distributor. He is especially effective as a passer out of pick-n-roll action. Additionally, Martin thrives on the fast break where he rarely commits a turnover.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><u>Additional SEPA Standouts</u></strong><strong>:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1188627' first='Milan' last='Dean'] – 6'3″ / 2025 / Archbishop Wood / [program_tooltip program_id='2428023' first='Philly' last='Revolution'] / Wing</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1454260' first='Silas' last='Graham'] – 6'4″ / 2027 / Haverford School / [program_tooltip program_id='2078678' first='East' last='Coast Power'] HGSL / Combo Guard</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Kendall Jackson – 6'1″ / 2027 / Cheltenham / Philly Elite / Combo Guard</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Robby Lucas – 6'3″ / 2025 / Abington Heights / [program_tooltip program_id='2245515' first='NEPA' last='Elite'] / Shooting Guard</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
