Scout’s Notes:
02/22/14: "The sibling of current Pittsburgh freshman Josh, the younger Newkirk brother has the tools to be an excellent player in his own right. On a squad with multiple backcourt prospects, his time with the ball in his hands was limited at the Phenom Hoop Cities Classic, but he found a way to make plays throughout the weekend without forcing the action. Size and athleticism are in his favor right now and he excels at getting to the rim in halfcourt and in transition. He was among the event's leading scorers and should be monitored for progress as a facilitator moving forward. The bottom line is he's one of the better guard prospects from the Class of 2018 in North Carolina." -Spencer Pulliam
