<p>This past Saturday at the Wayne Police Athletic League in Wayne, New Jersey, Prep Hoops held their first-ever Expo showcase in the state of New Jersey. 45 plus prospects from all over Northeast, came to compete against each other in 3 v 3 and 5 v 5 scrimmaging to put their talent, effort, and demeanor on display to talent evaluators, like myself, in attendance. There was talent abound on all six teams, but without further ado, here are the Team 5 evaluations!</p>
