Paultzman...Seems to be referenced as a junior so should be 17 but I'm assuming you know something.

Another lefty...also HS coach is Rodrick Rhodes(St. Anthony's and Kentucky)

Thought he was 17, but subsequent tweets from New Heights AAU program & Zach B noted 18. Eighteen makes more sense re SJU offer too.

Found a few when searching his name and Cordia HS but all very brief.

Nice dunk on this one.

Nelson is legit. Gets to the hole whenever he wants. Write elite finisher. Good stroke. Smart player. Under the radar but that won't continue.

Looks like a stud. Any combination of Him, Muhammad, or Williams would be great for '18 guard class.

I love this kid's game. Cool story as a elite talent that South Kent picked out of the middle of nowhere in Kentucky (Hazard, KY). He led that small town to a state title. He'd be perfect alongside Luther.

Another lefty. Will make it tough if opponent pitches a southpaw. Thank goodness we have a short right field porch.  ;)

Are you sure he is from Kentucky.? I thought this kid was a NYC kid who moved up to South Kent- also, he plays AAU for LI Lightning too...

So typical NYC kid from the last decade - get out of NYC early in high school, play well and become high level recruit that some prep school takes credit for. .  LOL
