NYG Hoops - Joe Fenelon held his 8th annual Super64 showcase at Truman HS in the Bronx, NY. NYG has been a mainsaty in showcase events as usal this event was full of aspiring prospects. The two session event featured talented players across the Tri state area from 6th - 12th grade. There were a number of competitive games and players displaying there individaul talents during the round robin style of play, here are a few of the stand out prospects.  

24’ Alyssa Febres Castle / Saunders HS 

Smooth guard with a scorer mentality and ability to get to her spots of the bounce with shifty shoulders and nice hesitation moves. Has a nice presence and feel for the game with good court vision.  

24’ Nila Girard New Heights / ICM NJ 

Workhorse at 5’10 with a dominant frame and natural aggression. Nila is a walking double double as she rebounds well out of position, great hands and finishes at a high rate around the rim. Shows flashes in transition, as her footwork in the paint and ball handling develops she will be an inside/out nightmare. 

26’ Madison Howard Castle AAU / Scanlan HS 

Madi may be one of the most athletic kids in class as her speed and elevation is through the roof. She had her way in transition slashing and finishing over and through defenders with elite body control. I was impressed with her improved jumpsuit as she hit a few from deep and showed consistency with the midrange. A tighter handle will take her game to the next level. 

26’ Gigi Battle NJ Gems / Rutgers Prep 

Gig is the perfect storm of size, athleticism and strength. She is a slasher type guard who searches for contact and has the ability to finish through it. Quick first step getting paint touches at will with good court vision making the righ pass.  I’d like to see her utilize her pull up more as she has as nice release point and form. 

27’ Regina Baker New Heights

Young lefty guard that plays the game with passion and purpose every time I watch her. She constantly applies pressure as she looks to attack lanes on every touch. Elite athleticism, excels in transition and has a nice touch on jumpshot, she has the tools and as she continues to develop will be in the conversation.
