King made one of the biggest jumps in the rankings, climbing from 49 to 15. King is one of the best shooters in the city, with the ability to score efficiently both from the catch and off the dribble. He puts the ball on the floor well, getting downhill and converting multiple floaters with touch. A lot of his impact goes unnoticed, but when that first shot drops, it’s going to be a long day for opponents.

He hit a catch and shot three from the left wing off an inbound pass and showed strong transition defense by stopping the break. He made a solid help side block on the big man and forced a turnover with his on ball pressure. He turned down a three for a smooth pull up jumper, then later connected on a right corner three to give his team the lead heading into overtime.

He started the game against Wings hot, connecting on a left-wing three off the catch, followed by a catch-and-shoot three from the right wing. He recorded a steal that led to an pinpoint pass from Gio as he finished in the paint and later hit a three from the top of the key.

He has been one of the most impressive shooters I’ve seen in New York City, consistently scoring from the perimeter. His confidence translates directly into his shooting, and with a high, quick release, he needs only a split second to get his shot off.

King is a heady point guard with impressive positional size, allowing him to see over defenders and control the game’s pace. He scores the ball efficiently at all three levels, picking his spots and staying under control. His vision and feel as a facilitator stand out, consistently creating quality looks for teammates. Fresh off an offer from Albany, King’s blend of IQ, size, and playmaking makes him a rapidly rising prospect.

He showcased his shooting touch, draining a variety of three pointers. On the defensive end, he stood out with strong help coverage that sparked a fast-break layup. His impact continued as he added a block and a steal, further highlighting his two-way presence on the floor.

A key scorer for the Eagles throughout a breakout sophomore year, King was uncharacteristically quiet throughout the game but stepped up when it mattered most in the decisive fourth quarter. The wing guard would score 8 of his 11 points in the final frame, knocking down a pair of 3s and getting to the line for a pair of free throws. King shoots a pretty ball off the catch with some skill and athleticism attacking off the bounce. There looks to be some interesting upside to tap into as he grows into his lengthy frame.

King is a quick and dynamic guard who can both score and facilitate at a high level. He uses his speed to break down defenders, creating scoring opportunities for himself and his teammates. His ability to control the pace of the game and make smart reads keeps defenses on edge. Whether attacking the rim or setting up others, King consistently makes an impact on the offensive end.

Elijah played this weekend like he was a seasoned veteran. He played under control and he made huge plays for Eagle when the time was right. He made a huge 3pt shot and made another bucket to help Eagle keep their lead. Elijah will continue to get better so keep an eye out for over the next couple of years in the PSAL.

King is a dynamic shooter with a quick release that makes him a constant threat from the perimeter. His ability to get his shot off in a hurry keeps defenders on their toes and opens up scoring opportunities. With his sharp shooting and growing confidence, he’s poised for a breakout year. King is set to have a big season for the Eagles, providing much-needed scoring and spacing for the team.
