" Heron told NBCSports.com that Kentucky, Mississippi State, Texas and UCLA are coming at him hard and he recently went on an unofficial visit to St. John’s to check out the Red Storm under new head coach Chris Mullin. "

Nice to hear!

"Heron is open in his recruitment with the St. John’s new coaching staff looking like they’ll be major factors in the race. He wants to make his decision by the start of his senior season."

Would love to gain  commitments from Heron and Ahmed before season starts.  The two and three would be locked down for a long time with them and Ellison.

Pangos

per Rivals.com:

Heron was also busy playing the game the right way.

Known since early in his high school career for his ability to overpower opponents, Heron is still a power player. The southpaw takes and delivers bumps while finishing plays and is always going full speed. Now, he's added a strong skill package to go along with his power and athleticism.

Heron says that he loves James Harden's game and you can see some similarities in style. He loves to pull-up for jumpers, is a crisp passer off the bounce and he hits the glass like a bigger player. Most notably, Heron has improved his game when heading to his off, right, hand and he seems to have much more trust in his jumper.

The way he played in April and the way he played on Saturday at Pangos, Heron is going to be under serious consideration for elevation to five-star status and his spot in the top 25 of 2016 will be safe when rankings get updated in the latter part of June.

@jeffborzello: From start to finish, hard to argue that Mustapha Heron has been the best performer this weekend. #PangosAA

1. Mustapha Heron and Rawle Alkins position themselves for a big summer

In the Class of 2016, shooting guards Mustapha Heron and Rawle Alkins have already positioned themselves as national recruits with a chance to become future All-Americans. Both bruising East coast guards had outstanding showings at the Pangos All-American Camp and they were the two best players during the weekend.

The 6-foot-5 Heron showed an ability to score going to the hoop almost any possession he wanted and he also showed that he can create for others with the pass. While his jumper and going right (using his off-hand) are both still a work-in-progress, Heron showed that he’s more confident going to those moves than he was last summer. He’s put himself in prime position to potentially be a five-star recruit with All-American honors this spring if he continues to play like this.

As for Alkins, he was a bit more inconsistent than Heron, but the New York native had peaks that were as good as anyone at the camp. With a deceptive first step and a lot of power going to the rim, the 6-foot-4 Alkins is very difficult to stop going to the basket and he had his way at Pangos in the camp’s up-and-down style of play. Much like Heron, the jumper is still a work in progress, but Alkins is crafty scoring the ball inside of 15 feet and he isn’t afraid to finish with either hand.

Would like to see both guys refine their jump shots.    IMO, that's what's keeping them from being truly elite prospects.

And who do you think might be able to help out that situation?

Like his passing in addition to being born scorer. When he refines his jumper, watch out!
