Future Phenom Camp Class of 2020 Top Performers Part 2 (Stock Risers)

Jalen Cone (North Carolina)

The Basketball Spotlight Future Phenom Camp Class of 2020 was crowded with some of the top players in the nation. As we continue our coverage of the Class of 2020 we will take a look at the players that used the Future Phenom Camp to raise their stock. 

Future Phenom Camp Class of 2020 Top Performers Part 2 (Stock Risers) 

Jalen Cone Guard (North Carolina)- Last year during this time Cone introduced himself to the country at the Future Phenom Camp. This time around the lead guard came to Maryland and took the event by storm. Jalen handled both guard positions but impressed me the most at the point guard spot. I love his quickness, court awareness, ball handling and creativity. He got up and down the floor in a blur and was able get passed defenders in the half court set. On the scoring end Cone also know how to fill it up. He can drop buckets from all three levels. His biggest compliment came from his coach who stated, “Cone if the most coachable kid in the camp. Even though he’s talented he remains very focused and started straight in my eyes during timeouts” he finished.

Andrew King Forward (Pennsylvania)- We didn’t get to see much of King during the AAU season but he made up for it at the Future Phenom Camp. King used a strong frame and soft touch to feast on the defenders in Maryland. He’s moved out of that project status and now can he looked at as a producer. I see a lot more confidence in his game and moves appear to be more polished. He’s making a strong run at the top prospect spot in Pennsylvania. 

 Richie Greaves Guard (New Jersey)- The Garden State floor general has grown a few inches and his game shows it. Now he plays stronger with the rock which allows him to get anywhere he wants on the floor. He demonstrated good court vision and over all feel for the game. He has more confidence in his outside shot even though he will have to raise his release point before he reaches high school.

Keyshawn Johnson Guard (Washington, DC)- I would be hard for Johnson to top his performance from last year’s camp but he showed some overall improvements that helped him make this list. When I watched Johnson rock he seemed to make a more conscious effort to be a pass first type of guard. He’s added the drive, draw and dish factor to his game. This is important because it gives him another weapon to add to his arsenal and makes him more attractive to high school coaches. 

Qaadir Maneri Guard (New York)- Maneri had his mind made up to score the rock before he arrived at the Future Phenom Camp. Because once the games started the power guard used strength and knack to score to pile up numbers. He has supreme body control and excels well in transition. His next step will be to develop more of an outside shot to keep the defense honest. 

Justin Lewis Forward (Maryland)- Lewis has gotten stronger and longer since we checked him out last year. He now can hold a position on the blocks and finish in traffic. He now comfortable with putting the rock on the deck especially along the baseline. When he’s in his groove he’s fun to watch and difficult to contain. 

Isaiah Kennedy Guard (Ohio)- Kennedy returned to the Future Phenom Camp and staked his claim as a guard to be reckoned with. He carries defenders to the cup and uses his feel for the game to make plays. His crafty handle and low dribble gets him into the lane at will and he will drain the outside jumper especially if he’s left open. 

Jeremy Roach Guard (Maryland)- Roach has been one of the hottest names in the summer and he capped it off with his play at the Future Phenom Camp. The scoring guard started the camp on cruise control but turned up the volume as the games intensified. He looks his best when pushing the rock in transition and converting over shot blockers. 

Travis Gray Guard (New York)- The Syracuse native first caught our eye at the MDC and continued to impress us at the Future Phenom Camp. He has a mean ratchet from the perimeter but I like his size and the potential he has. He’s a big time finisher and runs the floor like a deer. Don’t be surprised if he emerges as one of the top prospects when it’s said and done.

Future Phenom Camp Class of 2020 Top Performers Part 1 (Usual Suspects)

Terrence Williams (Maryland)

The Basketball Spotlight Future Phenom Camp Class of 2020 was crowded with some of the top players in the nation. Some of the participants were players that have been on the Spotlight scene for years. So our first look will be at the Usual Suspects that got busy in Maryland. 

Future Phenom Camp Class of 2020 Top Performers Part 1 (Usual Suspects) 

Terrence Williams Forward (Maryland)- This season we touted Williams as one of the most productive and dominant forces in the country. He proved this and more at the Future Phenom Camp. Big Smoove dominated on the baseline and in the paint. His touch is superb and his footwork helps separate him from his peers. I also was impressed with his improved leaping ability, he showed he could play above the rim and swatted shots all weekend. He was awarded MVP of this event after leading his team to the championship.

Isaiah Todd Forward (Virginia)- It’s hard to look at Todd and not drop your jaw because of his oozing talent. He runs the floor like a gazelle and finishes with the best of them. Now what’s really scary is Todd is now putting the rock on the floor and creating moves. His next step will be to extend his range on his outside shot. That shouldn’t take long because whoever is developing this kid is doing a great job. You might be looking at the future of basketball in DMV. 

 Jordan Toles Guard (Maryland)- The high flying guard is a joy to watch in transition as he has no problem attacking the rim. He’s one of the best slashers in the country and showed an improvement in his ball handling and decision making. Once Toles goes full speed it’s hard to slow him down. This kid get things done in this atmosphere.

Hunter Dickinson Forward (Virginia)- Hunter jumped into the Top 6 of the camp because he virtually dominated the game from the defensive end. He blocked and altered shots all weekend while also making driving guards think twice before they got to the rim. On offense he showed good touch on his face up jumper and was a viable finisher in close. 

Cameron Byers Forward (Maryland)- Big Cam threw his body around all weekend. He pinned defenders deep under the cup and converted in the paint. I like how he has been running the floor lately and putting the rock on the deck. It will be hard for him to turn into a natural three but he could dangerous and quick four. 

Che Evans Forward (Maryland)- One of the hottest names in the country made his appearance on Sunday and put in some work. He’s difficult to check on this level because he has the size and skill set to get a clean look on demand. He rocked defenders to sleep with his handle then used a slick step back move to nail jumpers. Evans can also take a smaller defender to the blocks and operate. It’s a great coincidence that he plays for Team Melo because his game is similar to the NY Knicks star.

Tyler Brelsford Guard (Maryland)- Brelsford didn’t start the camp out on fire but he gradually found his groove as the weekend went on. He seems to be growing so I think that his game is adjusting. He was still able to set up teammates and do some scoring on his own. If this growth spurt continues the rest of the guards in the country need to watch out. 

Montez McNeil Forward (Maryland)- McNeil had some tough matchups at this event but the young forward held his own. He has decent footwork and battles hard for position on the post. I like his motor and willingness to compete against bigger defenders. When you factor in his young age, developing skills and potential size. He could be something special down the road.

J.E.M. ALL Star Classic Top Performers (Orange Team)

Cole Anthony (New York, NY)

The Orange team came up short in this classic battle. But they still had some of the top performers in this event. Here are the top performers from their squad. 

J.E.M. ALL Star Classic Top Performers (Orange Team) 

Cole Anthony Guard (New York, NY)- Anthony was awarded the Most Outstanding Player of the Year and showed why. When he attacks the defender is at his mercy. Once Anthony gets into triple threat he uses a jab step to create space. If the defender bites he will drain a deep trey if the defenders stands still then he blows by them to get into the lane. When you add that he can score from all three levels and finish above the rim, you have a problem. Cole led the Orange squad in scoring and capped off his Spotlight career in style.


Dyondre Dominquez Forward (Boston, MA)- Dominquez brought his all-around game down to this event. He hit the boards hard, finished while running the floor, shot the deep ball and showed a big time motor. His play spearheaded the Orange team strong comeback attempt. His size, nose for the ball and untapped potential makes him an intriguing prospect.


Scottie Lewis Forward (Hazlet, NJ)- “The Show” was his usual self at this event. He played both ends of the floor with the passion you have to love. He also showed some tighter moves on the offensive end. In terms of athleticism there’s no one in the country that comes close to this kid. He took the Spotlight by storm a year ago and gave us some great memories.


Tariq Ingraham Forward (New Castle, DE)- Ingraham fought double teams all day and still managed to put up buckets and hit the glass inside. His footwork continues to show improvement and he seems to get longer each time we see him in person. Is the State of Delaware big enough to contain big Ingraham the next few years? We shall see.



Josh Pierre Louis Guard (Plainfield, NJ)- Josh has added some wiggle to his game and had it on full display at the J.E.M. Classic. He constantly broke down defenders with swift dribble moves and quickness. He also has grown a few more inches and should be a player to keep an eye on in the future.
Peter Sorber Forward (Trenton, NJ)- Sorber didn’t light up the scoring column but he used a serious motor to make his presence felt defensively and on the offensive glass. Peter challenged some of the well-known players in the region. I like how he stepped up mentally.
