💪 Skill, Motor & Defensive Disruption
According to Top25Scouts News, Noah wasn’t just productive — he was surgical.
Offensively, he consistently caught the ball at the free-throw line area, attacked with high-level spin moves, and finished strong at the rim. His footwork, balance, and touch around the basket separated him from the competition. He didn’t rush — he read the defense and made them pay.
On the glass, his 9 offensive rebounds completely shifted momentum, creating second-chance points and wearing down the Leaders’ interior defense.
Defensively, he was just as impactful. Garden State Bounce’s press gave Leaders Durant problems all game, and Noah was a major reason why. He made inbounding the ball extremely difficult — disrupting passing angles, reading the passer’s eyes, and applying pressure that led to hesitation and turnovers. His length, anticipation, and activity changed possessions before they even started.
🔥 Consistency at the Highest Level
Noah continues to prove he is arguably Garden State Bounce’s most consistent player — a true double-double machine every time he steps on the floor.
Currently ranked #2 in New Jersey for the Class of 2034, performances like this — recognized by Top25Scouts News — reinforce his status as one of the premier young prospects in the state and a rising name nationally.
