DeJongh came off the board when he announced that he’ll be attending the United States Naval Academy. A heady lead guard that makes great decisions with the basketball in screen-and-roll situations, DeJongh plays with great pace and feel on the offensive end of the floor. He’s a capable scorer who has a depth of finishing moves around the rim, including the ability to make floaters with either hand. Defensively, he’s a solid on-ball defender that does a great job of staying in front of the ball and keeping opposing dribblers out of the paint. He’s progressed as much as any lead guard in New England this year and should be able to carve out a roll at the Naval Academy with his IQ and intangibles.

Dejongh is a skilled guard that can score in a variety of ways.  He has high level breakdown ability which allows him to consistently get to the rim with ease. He also can spot up and shoot the long ball efficiently, using his knack for getting open on the perimeter to his advantage. Dejongh can also create for himself and others off the dribble, while also showcasing the ability to take and make tough shots .

Dejongh is set for a big season for Hotchkiss. He can heat up quickly from outside, adept to getting open on the perimeter for clean looks. He can also finish high around the rim on his drives in traffic. Dejongh also operates at a smooth pace and operates the pick and roll at a high level. His ability to change speeds  allows him to be highly effective in both the half court and transition situations.

Arop’s teammate Davyn DeJongh Davyn DeJongh 6'2" | CG Hotchkiss | 2024 State New E is also one that may be under the radar now, but we should definitely be keeping an eye on him moving forward because Dejongh’s intangibles are certainly there. His blazing speed and quick first step allows him to get into the paint at will where he displays a high level finishing ability around the rim. Dejongh also possesses extremely active hands around the perimeter on the defensive end, where he is able to turn a lot of steals into quick points; reminiscent of what Bob Huggins found in Jevon Carter during Carter’s WVU tenure and NBA pursuit. The 35th ranked player in New England has received interest from a number of Ivy League schools, but currently sits with Yale being his lone official offer, meaning Dejongh could be quite the diamond in the rough down the line. 

DeJongh has started off with some big time play at the Millworks. He is a crafty PG that can score the ball at all three levels. DeJongh is also a pesty defender, and displays high basketball iq when he makes plays to teammates
