Team 8 Standouts
Nedas Venckus Nedas Venckus 6'1" | PG Lockport | 2027 IL (Lockport – 2027)
Venckus is a 6’1” shooting guard that really impressed at the camp. He was lights out with his shot making hitting multiple from mid-range along with several threes. Slick ball handler that sets up his shot and can mix in some acrobatic finishes. He can really shoot it!
Dovydas Zuperka Dovydas Zuperka 6'6" Amos Alonzo Stagg | 2027 IL (Stagg – 2027)
This Stagg big man brings projectability at 6’6”. Long and athletic build. High-points rebounds and boards in and out of his area. Solid shot blocker as well.
Chaz Perry (Menomonee Falls, WI – 2027)
Perry is a point guard that is a solid passer especially in the drive and kick. Active hands on the defensive end pushing and getting out in transition. Can hit a three.
Justin Freeman Justin Freeman 5'7" | PG Andrew | 2027 IL (Andrew – 2027)
Smaller point guard at 5’7” that is effective in the drive and kick game getting others involved. Uses hesi moves to get to the rim. Shifty ball handler that wins off the bounce and finishes with scoop shots at the cup. Solid pull up shooter as well.

The 5’8” point guard continues to impress each time we see him. Wins off the bounce with his speed and creative handles. Killer crossovers and shifty takes on the regular getting downhill with burst where he finishes with an array of soft touch finishes. Has some decent passing feel as well.
Hamdi Ayyash Hamdi Ayyash 6'2" | PF Lockport Township | 2027 IL (Lockport – 2027)
This Lockport 6’2” two guard is a lefty that can really shoot the basketball. Hit multiple threes in the game we saw and also crashed the offensive glass effectively from his guard spot for second chance points.
Gino DeSandre (Lockport – 2027)
Another Lockport guard. This one stands at 5’10” and can really push it in the open floor. Liked his ability to pass with flair. Excellent crossover winning off the dribble on it over and over for layups at the cup. Also mixed in some pull up twos.
Nojus Venckus Nojus Venckus 6'1" | SG Lockport | 2027 IL (Lockport – 2027)
This Lockport 6’1” standout was stellar with his play at the camp. Creative ball handler that consistently won one on one with strong right handed takes. Finished dump offs around the hoop, rebounded well including following up his own jumpers for scores, and made some quick passes on the move.
