7/18 News and Notes

Open Evaluation Period 17-21 Day Two Updates
Jim Boeheim is currently in Milwaukee for the Under Armour Summer Jam to check out Isaiah Whitehead and Derrick Jones among others. Mike Hopkins is currently in Pennsylvania for the Hoop Group Summer Classic, to check out Kaleb Joseph and Goodluck Okonoboh among others.


   
Derrick Jones blocking everything in sight with Syracuse, UNC, Oregon, Maryland, Temple, Penn St, ND, Miami & more watching.

   
Teki(Montaque Gill-Caesar) is going off for Canada right now. Hitting the deep ball and scoring in transition. Starting to turn into a solid offensive piece

   
Teki going to work again at the midrange and Chris Egi killing it on the glass. Meanwhile Ivan Rabb just threw down a 2 handed 360

   
Derrick Jones looks solid in We R1 victory. Long and athletic forward changes the game w length in both ends

   
Stevie Thompson comes out the box early for Superior Athletes. Two smooth finishes.

   
Stevie Thompson is too nice right now. The 2015 SG is scoring at will

   
Stevie Thompson is straight getting after it right now. Scoring in every way.

  
Montague Caeser-Gill leads all scorers with 15 at the half as Canada trails USA West, 41-35. Stanley Johnson has 10 for West.

   
Have seen Canada's best 2016s past two weeks on Justin Jackson & Jamal Murray. Gotta give a slight edge to Jackson. Body/potential too good

   
Montaque Caesar Gill is absolutely killing it right now. Offensive game has come full circle. Can hit at all 3 levels with full confidence

   
Too early 3 stars of the game for Canada gotta give it to Teki, Zabo, and Egi. Egi could be one of most underrated 2015 guys

   
Gotta give it to Canada's Jamal Murray, his rate of difficulty on some of his makes are absurd!

   
First time I've seen CBCs Paschal Chukwu in person. Strong prospect at 7-1. Great timing defensively. Reminds me of a young Hasheem Thabeet.

   
Kassoum Yakwe and Chancellor Ellis having good game for Team Scan as they are trailing New Heights 21-15 at the half

   
Chris Egi has been a major problem down low for Thomas and Rabb. Upfake has killed USA West and is throwing away attempts on the other end

   
Just astounding to me the work and development Montaque Gill Caeser has gone through especially on his mid range game. Wow !

   
Team Scan 16U's Kassoum Yakwe has been a defensive force in the first half. Swatting shots, making shooters think twice

   
Kassoum Yakwe just flew for that block. 2016 kid is an explosive leaper and future hm player.

   
USA West up 65-58 at half on Canada at end of 3. Jamal Murray making it look easy scoring the ball

   
Montaque Caeser Gill finished with 23 points making 10 of his 16 FG

   
Team Scan 16's wins 53-35 over New Heights 16's led by Chris Atkinson, Kassoum Yawke and Devonte Green

   
Seems that Isaiah Briscoe is slowly developing into that point guard spot capable of making others better. Gotta like upside in 2015

   
2015 Stephen Thompson Jr. and Dillon Reise displayed their all-around skill packages....elite shooters...

   
AM Session standouts:Isaac Copeland,Abdulai Bundu,Larry Dennis,Tyus Battle, Evan Taylor,Tim Rowe,James Palmer,Jordan Cornish..

   
Liked the length and production of 2015 G/F Derrick Jones Jr from We R 1 16U Lefty w/quick bounce, finishes and blocks shots

   
Briscoe has been super productive.Playing great D.Newton hasn't been very aggressive,which is unlike him

   
Chris McCullough has been dominating the glass at and is off the ground so inside.Love potential.

   
USA East up 74-48 at end of 3 at .Chris McCullough continues to dominate in the paint.Its his game

   
Mass Rivals leads Team Frenji 47-40 kaleb Joseph in control of game

   
NE Playaz 17u vs House of Sports Elite(NY) Mustapha Heron running with NE Playaz looking good on the wing

   
Isaiah Briscoe has definitely worked on his distributing skills of late. Always had the vision, now can deliver onto it

   
Chris McCullough and Isaiah Briscoe are playing well as teammates here. Could potentially be teammates at Syracuse, too.

   
Syracuse-bound went for 17 and 6 and had 15 and 9 as USA East routed France, 101-77

   
Isaiah Whitehead is splashing in the threes to open Juice 17U game. Powerful SG showing why he's a coveted prospect

   
Isaiah Whitehead just knocked down a jumper from about 25 feet with ease. Kid is wired to score.

Isaiah Whitehead just drove down the middle of the lane and threw down on some defender. Vicious.

   
2014 PG Isaiah Whitehead with an unbelievable dunk. Took off just in front of the foul line and finished in traffic.

   
Tyus Battle can flat out shoot it.

   
Crazy just how good Tyus Battle is off the bounce. Almost looks uncomfortable taking easy open shots off the catch

   
Okonoboh has been dealing with very minor injuries; yesterday he had his ankle checked out, now trying to stretch his shoulder out

   
Mike Hopkins has followed Kaleb Joseph all tournament. Jim Boeheim now joining him. West Virgina & Providence been here throughout too.

   
Isaiah Whitehead is putting on an absolute show right now. Scoring at will for Juice All-Stars. Had a nasty poster, too

   
2016 Tyus Battle hitting pull up,defending, accepting the challenge as 1 of youngest in camp & showing he's 1 of the best

   
6'9 2014 Goodluck Okonoboh of Mass Rivals (MA) brings all the coaches like Syracuse Jim Boeheim to his games

   
Isaiah Whitehead doing his thing out there...lots of fun to watch when he's on. Plays so hard.

Canada out to big start. Up 10-4 at led by Chris Egi's strong play inside
