Buzz has been brewing throughout the fall about Egan’s splash of an addition up front and an initial viewing at Adedeji served to confirm that he should elevate the Eagles into the thick of the PCL playoff hunt. A skilled big transferring in from Canada by way of his native Nigeria, Adedeji is an imposing two-way paint presence who impacted things consistently across Egan’s pair of Sunday afternoon games. He showed soft hands and touch around the basket with some passing ability out of double teams and hints of a faceup scoring arsenal. Defensively, he was a consistent deterrent at the rim with good timing and verticality as a shot-blocker and some comfort stepping away from the rim to corral smaller ballhandlers. He looks to still be working into peak shape and is on the younger side of his grade, pointing to some real upside left to tap into as Egan continues working him into the fold. Adedeji is a name D1 coaches in the region should know immediately and his upcoming debut in the 2028 rankings will reflect that.

A recent transfer from Canada, Adedeji announced his enrollment at Egan earlier this month and made his competitive debut with the Eagles last weekend at West Chester’s Big 64 event. We’ll get our first up-close look at him this weekend with Egan set to take on Sankofa Freedom (PA) and Clearview (NJ) on Sunday morning. In analyzing his film, he looks to be a true paint presence with signs of advanced footwork and dexterity for his size. Egan is looking to move itself up the PCL standings this year and adding an apparent D1 talent in the frontcourt should be a great starting point.
