In The Spotlight: Shavar Newkirk

Name: Shavar Newkirk

AAU Team: Team Scan

Position: Point Guard

Class: 2014


Breakdown: Newkirk has found a home with Team Scan and is turning himself into a capable floor general. He has learned how to get his teammates involved doesn’t turn the rock over and knows how to play the passing lanes on defense. His squad just won the Jr. Nationals up in Massachusetts and Shavar ran the controls. Improvement on his jump shot will take a long way as especially on the high school level. Basketball Spotlight will be keeping an eye on him.
