BABY BALLER SHOWCASE
TEAM FINAL Class of 2018 came down to Life Center Academy to participate in the Basketball Spotlight Baby Baller Showcase. Players came from all over the Country to showcase there Talents. These young ballers showed there skills and talents among the best players. 2 of the 4 players were featured on the Basketball Spotlight website. check out the highlights of the TEAM FINAL players playing in the showcase on the left side of the page.
Baby Baller Super Showcase Profile: Eric Esposito
Name: Eric Esposito
Hometown: Langhorne, PA
Position: Shooting Guard
Class: 2018
Showcase Report: Eric showed up two hours before his first game to get some shots up in the gym and the preparation paid off for this kid. The lefty launched deep shots and finished off plays in transition. Now as he moves forward he needs to work creating his own shot off the dribble and lateral movement on defense. This shouldn't be hard because he already demostrated that he's a hard worker.
Baby Baller Super Showcase Profile: El Khana Hidalgo
Name: El Khana Hidalgo
Hometown: Pennsauken, NJ
Position: Combo Guard
Showcase Report: When Hidalgo was aggressive he showed some scoring prowess from the perimeter and when attacking. He knows his way around the floor and can play either guard position. Once he develops that killer instinct he game and stock will rise even higher. We will keep our eye on him.
Basketball Spotlight Baby Baller Showcase:
Featuring the Team Final Players Patrick, El Khana, Justin and Eric.
Keith Deloatch (New Castle, DE)- Keith is a strong guard with some size which helps him look over defenders. He leaves the fancy play to his counterparts and prefers to take apart defenders with skill and instincts. He will be another shining player from Delaware.
John Paul Sanders (Camden, NJ)- Sanders plays the 1 thru 3 positions on the floor and is beginning to come into his own. Right now he does show some point intangibles but he’s more of a natural scorer. He just seems like a player that is nowhere near reaching his peak so the opposition should be worried.
Ahrod Carter (Chester, PA)- Carter high arching jumpers tickled the twine from deep. He also has nice mid range game and looks real good when he’s being aggressive. The former Mr. Memorial game has matured right in front of our eyes. We only expect him to get better.
D’Andre Vilmar (Dover, DE)- Vilmar was a big surprise Saturday. He showed supreme athleticism, ability to score and an effort to handle the ball. This kid is a quick leaper with a great nose for the ball. I like his wiry frame, long arms and motor he plays with. He won’t be a post player for long.
Quade Green (Philadelphia, PA)- The explosive guard made his showcase debut and didn’t disappoint. He has a flair for the game that doesn’t take away from his effectiveness. He was difficult to contain off the dribble and also in traffic. Once he gets going he’s capable of reeling off buckets very quickly. His names will ring bells for a while.
Malik Velmar (Dover, DE)- It took Malik a little while to get accustomed to the showcase style of play but in his final game he finally got comfortable and let the ball fly. He connected on five treys and had the gym roaring. He’s a player you don’t want to catch fire from the perimeter if you are the opponent.
Some of the TEAM FINAL players headed out to Virginia to the Boo Williams Sports Complex for the John Lucas Future of The Game East Camp. John Lucas Camp normally held in Houston and Vegas expanded to the East coast for the first time.7th grader Quade, 6th grader El Khana and 6th Grader Justin participate in the Camp and did very well. Quade Green was Selected #2 over all in the camp among all grade levels. Check out there highlights from the camp below.
