Reading, PA (Future150) -- Jr.Future150 made its way to Albright College in Reading, Pennsylvania for the 2016 HoopGroup Jr. Future All-American Camp, where several prospects shined. Leading the way was a star in the making in 2021 floor general Tariq Eubanks.
Tariq Eubanks, 2021 PG, Team NEBC (NY): Using his blazing speed and advanced court vision, the Buffalo Academy of Science Charter School (NY) product has put himself on the map here at Junior Future All-America Camp. While he needs to learn to settle down in half-court sets at points, there's no denying his talent right now, as he's a very talented kid.
Trey Patterson, 2021 SF, Sports U-Team IZOD (NJ): Already standing 6'6"+ wing skills to play anywhere on the floor, it's clear that he's an elite prospect in his class. The Rutgers Prep (NJ) product has shown us flashes of just how good he can become as he progresses. Next, we'd like to see his consistency improve.
Travis Roberts, 2022 PF, Team Takeover (MD): Already standing in the 6'2"-6'3" range as a rising 7th grader, the Maryland prospect is standing out on the low block so far at camp. He's finished well around the basket, but has also shown ability to lead the fast break as well. It's very early in his development, but he's certainly worth keeping an eye on.
Tasheem Anderson, 2021 PG Team ICE (NJ) : A strong straight-line driver at 5'7", he uses his upper-body strength to get to the rack on the regular, where he finishes plays at a high rate. He's also very good at getting to the free-throw line on his aggressive drives, and has racked up several assists on nice passes to teammates on penetration opportunities.
Zion Russell, 2021 PG, DC Premier (D.C.): A 5'9" floor general hailing from Riverdale Baptist (MD), he showcased his open floor speed, advanced ball-handling skills & ability to knock down the long-range perimeter jumper with consistency on Tuesday. As the camp progresses, we would like to see him get his teammates involved more, since we already know what he's capable of in terms of scoring.
Shane Dezonie, 2021 SG/SF, Sports U-Team IZOD (NJ) : A high-upside wing already standing 6'3", it's been very easy for Dezonie to stand out in Reading. He's aggressive on the defensive end, and he's getting to the rim at will, where he finishes using his explosive athleticism and long arms. Once he tightens up his jump shot and ball skills, it's going to take his game to a completely new level.
Jahsire Sheriff, 2021 PG, Reading KTB (PA): He may come in a small package, standing roughly 5'2", but the kid can play! His feel for the game and court vision are outstanding traits of his. Regardless of his size, he's a physical & fearless defender, and showed the ability to score the ball as well. A passionate player with a dynamite skill set, once he hits a growth spurt, his game will go to a whole new level.
