Below is a review of three grassroots teams featuring prospects from southeastern Pennsylvania who have impressed scouts and more importantly college coaches of late.   [program_tooltip program_id='2078682' first='K-Low' last='Elite'] 3SSB 16U (2027)   Two weeks ago, at the K-Low vs. DMV Showcase, this 2027 group played remarkable ball. Then this past weekend at the Jersey Jam Fest they assembled a 2-0 record. Leading the way for this K-Low group is a trio of versatile and athletic perimeter prospects in combo guard [player_tooltip player_id='1454260' first='Silas' last='Graham'], point guard [player_tooltip player_id='2424028' first='Jayvon' last='Byrd'] and wing prospect [player_tooltip player_id='2452096' first='Ajani' last='Stewart']. Graham and Byrd have torched opponents with their ability to push the rock in transition and work off each other on half-court possessions. Stewart has continued to increase his recruiting stock with his agility, bounce, and stellar long-range shooting. Elusive and high IQ point guard [player_tooltip player_id='2194468' first='Naz' last='Tyler'] as well as three-level bucket getter [player_tooltip player_id='2427227' first='MJ' last='Thompson'] have also turned heads with this K-Low team.   [program_tooltip program_id='2428023' first='Philly' last='Revolution'] – Team Iverson 16U (2027)   This Philly Rev-Iverson squad is 5-2 over their last two tournaments. At the Pittsburgh Jam Fest, they lost in the championship game of their 16u platinum division. Team Iverson's 16U group relies heavily on a slew of talented perimeter prospects who thrive in transition and can score at all three-levels in the half-court. Combo guard [player_tooltip player_id='2500795' first='Seth' last='Gaye'] has impressed with his ability to balance his scoring skills with getting his teammates involved. Athletic wing-prospect Horace Jackson IV has played like one of the top “3&D” Class of 2027 prospects in the region. Conwell Egan standout [player_tooltip player_id='2427221' first='Myles' last='Moore'] has gotten buckets too, but he has also proven to be a vastly underrated rebounding guard. Swiss Army knife [player_tooltip player_id='2435925' first='Rahmir' last='Speaks'] has impressed at both guard spots. Additionally, power forward [player_tooltip player_id='2630686' first='Grahm' last='Hamilton'] has displayed significantly improved offensive skills. In late April and May college coaches will want to keep an eye on stretch-4 prospect Sean Breslin who is flying under the radar.   Team Fina EYBL 15U (2028)   With a roster stacked with some of the top 2028s in the state, it should not be a surprise that Final's young bucks posted a 2-0 record at Jersey Jam Fest. Freshman phenom [player_tooltip player_id='2450782' first='Rowan' last='Phillips'] (12 ppg. & 6 apg. in 2024-25) has been unstoppable in the open court. Fellow backcourt prospects [player_tooltip player_id='2450669' first='Carter' last='Smith'], [player_tooltip player_id='2563335' first='Justin' last='McKie'], [player_tooltip player_id='2485360' first='Patrick' last='Jajua, Jr.'] and Demere Salisberry have been running the floor with Phillips for transition buckets. Stretch-4 prospect [player_tooltip player_id='2563334' first='Julian' last='McKie'] presented serious match-up problems for opponents. For a 2028 prospect [player_tooltip player_id='2563334' first='Julian' last='McKie']'s game is extremely smooth and he plays with poise. Two big men really stood out for TF 15s this past weekend – hybrid forward [player_tooltip player_id='2703264' first='Logan' last='Chwastyk'] and small forward [player_tooltip player_id='2450772' first='Pryce' last='Alston']. Both players are already drawing interest from DI programs.
