Future Phenom Camp Class 2028/29 Top Performers Part 1 

FUTURE PHENOM CAMP PROFILE: Santana Hodge (NJ)

Name: Santana Hodge 

Position: Guard 

Class: 2027 

State: NJ 

Breakdown: We have seen Hodge’s game develop the last few years. He has become a confident playmaker in terms of scoring and passing the rock. He showed toughness, pace and poise during the Future Phenom Camp. I also like the body control he showed finishing through contact.

FUTURE PHENOM CAMP PROFILE: Sean Turner Savage (NJ)

Name: Sean Turner Savage 

Position: Guard 

Class: 2027

State: NJ 

Breakdown: Turner Savage used his handle to get to spots on the floor. He loves to score the rock from the three levels especially shooting off the bounce. He made the top 20 all-star game. I do believe as he gets closer to high school his game will transition to more of a pass first floor general.
