Forte owns a quick first step and elusive handles, so he gets to the tin with ease. Plus, his jumper is automatic from numerous spots on the floor. As a bonus, he is a menacing on-ball defender.
Isaac Moore Isaac Moore 6'7" | PF Life Center Academy | 2024 NJ – 6’8″ / Junior / Friends Central / K-Low Elite / Power Forward: Over the last year, Moore has developed into one of the most versatile bigs in the region. Thanks to his size and quick post moves, Moore dominates on the interior. His guard-like dribbling skills, 3-point shooting and high basketball IQ enable Moore to play on the perimeter too. Late last week Robert Morris University gave Moore his first college offer.
Khaafiq Myers Khaafiq Myers 5'10" | PG Neumann-Goretti | 2024 State PA – 5’10” / Junior / Neumann-Goretti / NJ Scholars Elite / Point Guard: There is an intriguing dance going on between Myers and the St. Joe’s Hawks program. Head Coach Billy Lange has already offered the elite floor general.Myers (11 ppg. & 4 rpg.; 2nd Team 4A All-State) has “unofficially” visited the SJU campus. Then earlier this week on his Instagram account, Myers posted an image if himself stepping over Barbelin Hall with the words “Hawk Hill Hero” emblazoned across the graphic. Stay tuned.

In the half-court, Stewart-Herring can score at all three levels. This past season he averaged 13 points to go along with 4 rebounds per game while shooting 37.5% from deep.
