'25 Rankings Update: Debut Prospects

Washington has found a nice role alongside Neiko and the rest of PGCA. He fills in as a reliable forward that can stretch the floor and defend effectively. He has steady performances for the team and doesn't go outside of his role. Kendall plays to his strengths well which makes the game easier for him. Sets solid screens and hits open shots when he gets the pass off the rotation. I like the way his defense impacts the game. He can stop the ball and makes smart defensive rotations to position himself to make a play on the ball or at the rim. Has a good feel for when to put the ball down and create a shot off a couple dribbles.     Solomon is an efficient bucket-getter who doesn't need a lot of touches to stay in rhythm. He can score from knocking down the trey, and appears very comfortable creating for himself in the midrange. When in attack mode, Lewis creates a difficult cover for anyone with his unlimited ways to score. He can react off of the defensive coverage and work to his spot with the handle. Solomon also does a good job of keeping his head up and finding open players while attacking for a basket. Sound overall offensive game, type of player to end the game with a quiet but productive 20 point night due to the type of shots he takes and hits.     Nas and Lanham Christian have been tremendous this season. Nas has starred this season as the team's featured point guard. When the team needs scoring, Nas provides points in a variety of ways. He can get down low underneath the rim with his unpredictable handle. He drives and finishes with either hand, and has a nice feel in the midrange. Nas can step behind the arc very confidently as well. Keeps his teammates involved all game long and makes solid passes into the interior and on the outside to his shooters. Unique player because he can switch between playing the role of a pure point guard or the go-to scorer for the team over the course of a game.     Entertaining point guard to watch with the ball. Semaj has taken the lead position well for New Hope as the main playmaker on the floor. He is both shifty and crafty with his handle which opens up lanes for him to exploit on offense. Semaj is lethal in transition with his quickness and ball control, getting to the basket in a flash. He can also fill it up from deep if the defense isn't careful. Likes to shoot from range and establish his presence beyond the arc before getting into the lane and creating plays. Marshall is very effective on the ball when he gets into rhythm, and can heat up in a hurry.     David has had a very consistent season as one of the team's top rebounders and defenders. He can grab offensive rebounds at a high clip, really using his height to his advantage against smaller defenders. David is smart with the ball and makes some good passes on the perimeter, becoming more and more reliable outside. You can count on him for at least 6-10 points/rebounds each on any given night. Proven to be a force to be reckoned with in the paint out in Baltimore. Stars in his role which caught him the attention of our scouts over the season.
