SEPA ’27s and ’28s to Scout in May

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Below is a review of four 2028 prospects from southeastern Pennsylvania who we believe college coaches need to scout on the grassroots circuit in May.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2853708"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6824874c728f8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Adedeji is an athletic and physical prospect who is a dominating interior force at both ends of the court. On offense, Adedeji produces points from the dunker spot, the baseline, and the low blocks. Plus, his length, nose for the ball and quick second jump enable Adedeji to repeatedly crash the offensive glass for pout backs. His ability to power up through contact and then finish with authority is remarkable. Adedeji also does a fantastic job of passing out of double teams to open shooters. Defensively, Adedeji is a beast on the glass and a fierce shot blocker. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Kevin Bullard ","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2028","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'1u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Archbishop Wood ","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"BW Elite","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6824874c729b3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bullard is an athletic and high IQ primary ball handler. He does a tremendous job of using change of pace / direction dribbles to create for himself and teammates. When he is looking to score, Bullard will blow past his defender then execute a smooth crossover, hesitation dribble or spin move to get to the rim for a lay-in. At times Bullard has shown the ability to get to the cup by bullying his way through defenders with his physicality. Bullard can also get into the paint and then slam on the breaks for a pull up jumper. His court vision and passing skills enable Bullard to put the ball on the deck and then hit cutters or perimeter shooters with well-timed, live dribble dimes His passing skills on the fast break are impressive too. As a bonus to his off the bounce skills, Bullard can pop threes too.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2693524"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6824874c72a02"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Johnson posted his breakout stretch of play in SEPA during the 2024-25 high school season by averaging 10 points per game in the Philadelphia Public League. Now it is time for college coaches on the national recruiting scene to stop sleeping on him. Johnson is a quick burst floor general with a high IQ and slick handles. He does the bulk of his scoring damage by using those assets to fearlessly attack the painted area for runners, floaters, and lay-ins. Johnson also excels at pushing the rock in the open court for scores and assists. On defense, Johnson is a menacing on ball presence. College coaches will love that Johnson plays with a poise that is beyond his years.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2548148"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6824874c72a47"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">This multi-skilled backcourt prospect owns a highly accurate jump shot and the handles of an elite point guard. That combination makes Rahman one of the best off the bounce shooters in Pennsylvania's Class of 2028. Whether he is in transition or in the half-court, Rahman excels at coming out of a dribble move and then using his quick release to get a shot off. Rhaman's off the dribble jumper is automatic from every level, but it is especially lethal from behind the arc. He has also proven that he can drain shots coming off picks or out of DHO action. Rahman's accurate jump shot is complimented by his ability to get into the lane for runners and lay-ins.       </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
