Top 25 Cream of the Crop - (Recognizing  the NJ players from the list only))

Brandon Taylor 6-7 2012 Trenton, NJ Catholic – Big strong rebounder is tough when he stays in the paint. He has range to arc, but his game skills are built for the blocks. Mids-up should monitor him.

Kyle Anderson 6-7 2012 Paterson, NJ Catholic – He had a double-double in the All-Star game to show he can get to ball off the boards as well as handle on break or off the dribble. He told us that He has offers from Pittsburgh, St. John's, Georgetown, La Salle, and interest from Miami (FL), Virginia Tech, North Carolina, Kansas, Texas, Oregon State, Rutgers, Seton Hall, Michigan, and Indiana.

Dominic Hoffman 6-7 2012 Gill, NJ St. Bernard's – Face-up big man popped 16-footer and did good job finishing in paint off the post-up. He attacks glass and will see D-1 looks in the future.

Dwayne Foreman 6-5 2013 Ramsey, NJ Don Bosco – This long and lean face-up combo forward showed range to the arc and ability to score off the dribble at the rim. He should have mids on up watching his development.

Reggie Cameron 6-5 2013 Paterson, NJ Catholic – This young insider did a solid job on the glass and finished around the hoop. He has good hands on blocks and can pop 10-footer on pop too

Carson Puriefoy 5-11 2012 Pennsauken, NJ Bishop Eustace – Another combo who can really score off dribble at the rim or stick 18-footer if left open. He will “D” you up and has quicks to develop into stopper in the future. As decisions at point mature, he will see lots of D-1's in the gym.

Kavon Stewart 5-10 2013 Paterson, NJ Catholic – Young floor leader grew on me as weekend went on. He hit jumper from perimeter, made solid decisions off the dribble, and looked to make pass first. Another point who will see interest this winter.

 

Nico Palminteri Picks Top  (2011):
Isiah Morton - 5-foot-7 (St. Augustine Prep)
Quick as can be with good scoring instincts.
Brandon Pascucci - 6-foot-2 (Lower Cape May) Shot the lights out, very good handle and good play maker.
Charlie Monaghan - 6-foot-5 St. (Augustine Prep)
Knows how to play and competes extremely hard
Ernie Harper - 6-foot (Lower Cape May)
very quick, knows how to get to the rim.
Jarrelle Reischel - 6-foot-5 (Point Pleasant Beach)
Has the looks of a high major.
