JJ Smith (National #2 → Recently Moved Into Top 5 via Top25Scouts)

JJ was a nightmare matchup all weekend. No team could prevent him from getting downhill, where he finished tough layups and threw down multiple highlight dunks. His improved mid-range touch and three-point shooting made him nearly impossible to game plan for.

Simply put: JJ might have been the best prospect at the entire Made Hoops Northeast Session.
His dominance resulted in a Top25Scouts rankings bump into the national Top 5.

David Moudouyi (National #3 | #1 in New Jersey)

David delivered a powerhouse performance throughout the session. He controlled the glass, ripped down rebounds in traffic, and ignited crowds with violent, powerful dunks. What impressed scouts most was his touch on turnaround jumpers and improved patience on the block.

Athletically, David overwhelmed opponents — a clear indication of why he holds the title of #1 player in New Jersey.

James Coleman Jr. (National #24 → Recently Moved into Top 25 via Top25Scouts)

Jay was unstoppable on all three scoring levels. His NBA-range shooting forced defenders to close hard, which he countered with smooth drives and acrobatic finishes with either hand. He pushed pace, applied 94-foot defensive pressure, and showcased advanced playmaking as a lead guard.

His overall performance elevated him into the Top 25 nationally.

Amare Almondover (National #15 | #1 in New York)

Amare was the definition of a floor general. He controlled tempo, organized the offense, and consistently created high-quality scoring opportunities for teammates. His long-range shooting was deadly, and his strong finishes off paint touches made him a constant scoring threat.

Amare’s IQ separated him from every guard he matched up against, reinforcing his ranking as the #1 player in New York.

---

Khryi Tomlinson (National #10 | #1 in Maryland)

Khryi was physically imposing and relentless. His size, strength, and interior presence made him one of the toughest covers in the event. He finished through contact, rebounded at a high level, and anchored both ends for his team.

He continues to prove why he is the #1 player in Maryland and a Top 10 national prospect.
