Biography: Jonathan “JJ” Moore has been a hidden talent out in Brentwood, Long Island. JJ joined the NY Panthers AAU program in the spring of 2009 and has gained a lot of exposure and experience needed to compete on a higher level. JJ has made the most out of his opportunity being invited Reebok All-Star game, NBA Top 100 camp, and having good showings at various tournaments. Moore will also be leaving the Island in favor of attending South Kent Prep in Connecticut.
Scouting Reports: Moore is one of the players who blew up the most during this past AAU season. While playing with the NY Panthers for the first time this season, the 6’6†Moore was able to play at positions that fit him best. Unlike his high school games where he was forced to play center and power forward due to his teams lack of height and size. With the Panthers Moore was accelerating as a top wing player. Attacking the hoop with a variety of moves is Moore’s forte. – Ray Anczelowicz Gotham Hoops (Summer 2009)
