NJ Legacy EO Fall Ball: Best From Tuesday, September 15th

Fall leagues have officially tipped off across New Jersey, with preseason action getting underway in gyms throughout the state. Since the beginning of the week, prospects have returned to the court with their respective high school programs, offering an early glimpse at players preparing for the upcoming season. Several prospects have already begun to show signs of taking on new or expanded roles. The New Jersey Legacy Fall Ball League remains one of the premier fall leagues in the state, with Tuesday's action taking place at Cicely L. Tyson High School in East Orange, NJ. With another night of games in the books, let's take a look at some of the prospects who caught our attention.    A proven perimeter weapon, [player_tooltip player_id='2391282' first='Avery' last='George'] once again displayed the shooting ability that has become a defining part of his offensive profile. George repeatedly punished defensive lapses in the half court, finding open pockets off different movements and different actions, to convert on catch and shoot threes with impressive rhythm and confidence. His shooting gravity continues to create valuable spacing for this offense, while his consistency from deep makes him a reliable floor spacing threat.     A poised and efficient two guard, [player_tooltip player_id='3648311' first='Jaylen' last='Sims'] once again showcased his natural scoring instincts while demonstrating the ability to impact the game without forcing opportunities, allowing his production to come organically within the offense— displaying hints of a diverse shot making profile getting to open space for smooth mid range pull ups mixed with movement shooting from beyond the three point arc.     Undersized guards are often asked to be disruptive defensively to offset their physical disadvantage, and that remains an area where [player_tooltip player_id='2884521' first='Bryce' last='McCray'] makes a significant impact. McCray's defensive ball pressure stood out immediately, just wearing down West SIde's ball handlers and making it difficult on them, forcing deflections and turnovers throughout the entirety of his minutes. McCray's effort and energy on the defensive end transferred to impact on the offensive end, where he was able to knife into the defense off the bounce and finish in traffic at the rim while also maintaining his court vision to find guys open coupled with efficiency from beyond the three point arc.     A seamless offensive fit at the guard position whose versatility and efficiency continue to remain hallmarks of his production, [player_tooltip player_id='2789859' first='Dave' last='Kobryn'] was exactly that once again in this fall league matchup. Kobryn displayed impressive efficiency across multiple different shooting categories— boasting similar percentages off the catch and off the bounce, suggesting a versatile shot making profile. With plenty of offense in this one being generated in transition, Kobryn also provided impact on the offense glass, cleaning up a handful of missed layups.     Expected to carve out a role amongst this Newark Tech rotation in some capacity, [player_tooltip player_id='3664801' first='Chase' last='Davis'] was extremely productive in this fall ball matchup against Hudson Catholic. Pressure, on both ends of the floor is where it all started for Davis— aggressive in hunting driving angles and attacking closeouts off the bounce to get in the lane and finish from difficult angles in traffic around the rim coupled with intense on ball pressure on the defensive end to make it difficult for opposing ball handlers.     [player_tooltip player_id='3573755' first='Moussa' last='Sylla'] has good straight line burst and a herky jerky handle that allows him to create advantages off the bounce. Beating his initial defender with speed and quickness was pertinent in this matchup where as a driver, Sylla showed solid playmaking instincts, getting deep into the paint, drawing help, and finding open teammates in the dunker spot or on the perimeter, establishing and maintaining a level of flow offensively.
