Boo Williams Invitational Recap
HAMPTON, Va. – On the first of three weekends with travel team tournaments that are live for Division I coaches to attend, one major event stood out as not being live. That was the Boo Williams Invitational, which nonetheless had its usual share of talented teams and from all over the country. This year’s event was no different in terms of teams present, and the marquee players on those teams were in Virginia instead of changing teams to go to a live event this weekend.
The 15-under championship was never in doubt after the Albany City Rocks scored the first 13 points of the game and led by as many as 29 en route to a 63-38 blowout of Baltimore-based Team Melo. Taran Buie (6’3″ Fr. SG, Albany (NY) Bishop Maginn HS) led the City Rocks with a game-high 29 points.
In the 16-under championship, a short-handed BABC team led for most of the game, holding on in the final minutes for a 64-58 win over the New Jersey-based Playaz. In the final minutes, BABC made several key defensive plays to hang on to their lead, which never reached double figures. Jamal Coombs (6’6″ So. SF, Winchendon (MA) School) and Ron Giplaye (6’5″ Fr. SF-PF, Newton (MA) Cushing Academy) led BABC with 16 points, with Coombs making several key plays late to help BABC hold on. Dominic Cheek (6’6″ So. SG-SF, Jersey City (NJ) St. Anthony’s) led the Playaz with a game-high 22 points. (For more on BABC’s championship run, please visit here.)
The 17-under championship was a dandy all the way through, although Chicago-based Mean Streets opened up a 28-18 lead in the first half and looked like they could break away. Boo Williams came alive early in the second half to grab the lead, going up 41-36 later on before back-and-forth play in the final minutes. With Mean Streets leading 48-47 with 2.6 seconds left, an inbounds pass to Ed Davis (6’8″ Jr. PF, Richmond (VA) Benedictine HS) led to a quick reverse layup and foul with one second left to give Boo Williams the lead. He missed the free throw and time expired, giving the hosts a 49-48 championship win, marking the third straight year they have won the event. Davis, who was the tournament MVP, led the way with 14 points. Kevin Dillard (6’0″ Jr. PG, Homewood (IL) Flossmoor HS), who made a key three-point play with two minutes left, capped an excellent weekend with 12 points to lead Mean Streets.
Player Notes
Al-Farouq Aminu (6’8″ Jr. SF-PF, Norcross (GA) High) Last May, he was very impressive and looked like one of the elite players in the class of 2008. This time around, he seemed to be too caught up trying to be a small forward, and it showed – in a bad way. He struggled shooting the ball and looks awkward with the ball in his hands, and just generally seemed out of his element playing on the perimeter. High-major prospect.
Catalin Baciu (7’1″ Jr. C, Asheville (NC) Veritas Christian HS) At a couple of points in one game, it looked like this big man could be a big force inside, as he started the game with consecutive post baskets, but he didn’t keep it up. He has a good frame, some post moves inside and can rebound, but his hands look like a question mark and he needs to add strength. High-major/high-major minus prospect.
Keion Bell (6’3″ Jr. PG-SG, Pasadena (CA) High) Although he brought the ball up often, he seems more suited to the shooting guard spot because of his scoring ability. He made a number of drives that he finished, showing a nice ability to get to the basket en route to 27 points in one game. His jumper didn’t look as good, but he’s solid at the foul line and that will help since he likes to drive to the hoop.
Darryl Bishop (6’2″ So. SG, Groton (MA) Lawrence Academy) A strong guard who is also an excellent football player, he comes to play and does a lot of things that don’t show up in the box score. He plays bigger than his size, and evidence of that was his constant presence on the glass this weekend as well as being spotted inside next to taller players often. Offensively, he’s much more of a scorer than a shooter, but again, his value isn’t there. He doesn’t force many shots and is a solid passer from the wing.
Michael Bostic (6’8″ Jr. PF, Ontario (CA) Colony HS) An athletic forward, he has good size and blocked his share of shots. His offense looks very limited, as he didn’t get many chances and did basically nothing when he did get the ball.
Shamarr Bowden (6’3″ Jr. SG, Greensboro (NC) Miller School) Nice scoring guard was an important complement to the inside scoring of teammate Ed Davis this weekend. He shot the ball well from long range all weekend long and has above average quickness, and generally seemed to take good shots along the way.
Taran Buie (6’3″ Fr. SG, Albany (NY) Bishop Maginn HS) Very active wing impressed with the fact that he quietly took over the 15-under championship game by being all over the court. He got a number of rebounds and loose balls at both ends of the floor and scored often in transition, while also showing a little mid-range touch that will have to keep developing.
Antonio Bumpus (6’4″ Jr. SG-SF, Columbus (OH) Eastmoor HS) An above-average athlete, he’s not afraid to go inside with the bigger bodies and do some work. He has a good body and can score inside and from long range, going for 14 points in one game.
Dominic Cheek (6’6″ So. SG-SF, Jersey City (NJ) St. Anthony’s) Thin wing isn’t afraid to go inside, as he constantly drove to the basket and either finished or drew a foul. His game is scoring the ball, and he does it well. The development of a jumper will be a key to watch over the next couple of seasons.
Jamal Coombs (6’6″ So. SF, Winchendon (MA) School) His offensive tools weren’t exactly on display as the UConn commit struggled shooting the ball, but he did plenty of other things to help his team win. He rebounded well all weekend long and worked inside at times on the offensive end, and his clutch plays late in the championship game were further evidence that his shooting struggles weren’t going to bring him down.
Anthony Crater (6’1″ Jr. PG, Flint (MI) Southwestern Academy) He’s noteworthy this weekend because he did not impress while playing with a very talented King of the Court team. He didn’t shoot the ball well and wasn’t a major factor in the team’s offense, scoring in the single digits in two games we saw. We know he can shoot it, but that wasn’t on display this time around save for a clutch three-pointer he hit in overtime of one game. High-major prospect has committed to Ohio State.
Chris Crockett (5’9″ Jr. PG, Columbus (OH) Academy) Nice floor leader isn’t overly quick, but he plays to win. He has a mature body, makes hustle plays and plays hard at both ends of the floor, and has a three-point shot that must be respected enough to keep defenses honest. Mid-major prospect.
Robert Curtis (6’9″ Sr. PF, Hawthorne (CA) Capistrano Valley HS) Lefty forward is active and runs the floor well, getting several chances on fast breaks. He has a decent body and will get his share of rebounds, especially at the offensive end. On the down side, he will travel with the ball and seems to lack post moves to score inside. Mid-major/mid-major plus prospect.
Taylor Darby (6’8″ Jr. SF, San Marcos (CA) Mission Hills HS) Has good size for the small forward spot, but has just average athleticism and an odd release on some of his shots, as though he’s trying to release the ball a little too quickly. He has three-point range, but seemed to struggle on some shots close to the basket.
Ed Davis (6’8″ Jr. PF, Richmond (VA) Benedictine HS) Long lefty had another solid scoring weekend en route to tournament MVP honors. His body is maturing and he continues to operate well on the post, although that’s clearly where he operates best as his game away from the basket leaves something to be desired. To his credit, he doesn’t venture out there much, instead staying inside and consistently scoring a lot of points inside. High-major prospect.
Kevin Dillard (6’0″ Jr. PG, Homewood (IL) Flossmoor HS) One of the best players at the tournament, he had a terrific weekend scoring and shooting the ball. He has good quickness and can get to the basket, while possessing a good shot from long range. Both were very much on display in a terrific 29-point effort in the semifinals against The Family, and he also made a few nice passes on drive and dish plays. High-major prospect.
Dion Dixon (6’3″ Jr. SG, Chicago (IL) Crane HS) Quick guard showed the ability to get to the basket and also was solid at the free throw line, two assets that should go well together. He went for 22 points against a good Nike Team Florida, and if he can shoot the ball better from long range, he could be even better. High-major minus/mid-major plus prospect.
Michael Dunigan (6’10” Jr. PF-C, Chicago (IL) Farragut Career Academy) A solid inside player, he has a big body and does his work inside. He can be an enforcer, rebounding well and occasionally blocking shots, and he talks to teammates at the defensive end. He has some post moves at the offensive end and doesn’t try to be a small forward. High-major prospect.
Devin Erwin (6’7″ Jr. SF-PF, Albany (NY) High) Versatile forward is athletic and active and was a key contributor for his team. He has some length and was around the ball often, scoring in transition and on loose balls.
Erik Etherly (6’7″ Jr. SF, Alexandria (VA) Annandale HS) Lanky forward is active and will get out in transition. His overall skills have to come along, which was also evidenced by a couple of offensive fouls he was called for, but the lefty has the athleticism as a starting point.
Eric Evans (5’10” Jr. PG, Detroit (MI) Northwestern HS) Lefty point guard doesn’t have a world of physical tools, but he plays without fear. Though he’s not a jet, he’ll gladly drive against the big guys all day, using his strength to help when he gets inside.
Brolin Floyd (6’5″ Jr. SG-SF, Ocala (FL) Shores Christian HS) Athletic wing has good size and was active at both ends. He showed three-point range, but that doesn’t appear to be his forte.
Kenny Frease (7’0″ Jr. C, Massillion (OH) Perry HS) Big man has a good frame and works inside, knowing that his limits mean he’s not a perimeter player. Although he went for 12 points as a complementary player in one game, his touch on the post is so-so as he missed some shots most big men will make. High-major/high-major minus prospect.
Ron Giplaye (6’5″ Fr. SF, Newton (MA) Cushing Academy) Strong combo forward continues to show solid fundamentals, especially inside. He showed some quick post moves and is excellent finishing close to the basket, and he rebounded well. If he grows a few more inches, he could be one of the elite post players in the class of 2010.
Draymond Green (6’7″ Jr. SF-PF, Saginaw (MI) High) Although a relatively questionable selection to the all-tournament team, the talent is definitely there. He has a good body and can work inside and out, scoring on drives and from long range as well. He went for 15 points in the semifinal and led a comeback attempt that fell short. High-major/high-major minus prospect.
Oscar Griffin (6’4″ So. SG, Philadelphia (PA) American Christian School) When he gets his mind set on going to the basket, he can get in a groove, as he did for a stretch in one game we saw. He scored several driving field goals and got to the line a few times en route to 20 points, partly from quickness but more from finding gaps in the defense to drive through. We didn’t see him shoot from long range much, so that aspect of his game is an unknown at the moment.
Sam Grooms (6’2″ Jr. PG-SG, Greensboro (NC) New Horizon HS) He played the point, but appears to have the scorer’s mentality to play off the ball as well (and he might even be better suited to there). He has a good body and no shortage of confidence, and looks to be more of a scorer than a shooter, although he did knock down a clutch three-pointer in one game. High-major minus prospect.
Kyle Hardrick (6’8″ So. PF, Norman (OK) High) Post player showed some good fundamentals inside and ran the floor well for a few opportunities. He could stand to gain some strength in the lower body and isn’t a great leaper, but he puts in good work inside.
Xavier Henry (6’6″ So. SG-SF, Oklahoma City (OK) Putnam City HS) Lefty athlete can light it up, and he did just that en route to all-tournament honors. He has a mature body for his age and at times brought the ball up, though he’s not a point guard, and he shot it well from long range. In a game we saw, he went for 25 points.
Devin Hill (6’9″ Jr. PF, Bronx (NY) St. Luke’s HS) Very long forward is athletic and looks to have plenty of potential. He got very few touches on offense, but notable at the defensive end was that he ably guarded Delvon Roe for a period of time, as his length seemed to bother him.
Murphy Holloway (6’7″ Jr. SF-PF, Irmo (SC) Dutch Fork HS) Lefty forward looks like a better defensive player than offensive player, as he very ably defended bigger players. He looks like a complementary player, but there’s usually a place for someone who can defend and do dirty work inside.
Matthew Humphrey (6’5″ Jr. SG-SF, Chicago (IL) Hales Franciscan HS) Lanky athletic wing didn’t get a lot of shots in some early games we saw, although he got his share in the championship game. He has proven his ability before, so it’s puzzling that the lefty didn’t get a lot of shots.
Lakeem Jackson (6’5″ Jr. SG, Charlotte (NC) Harding HS) Athletic wing has a college-ready body and looks to have the scoring tools to boot. The lefty had a nice driving hoop on the right side of the basket and showed the ability to finish in traffic on a few occasions.
Chris Johnson (6’5″ Jr. SG-SF, Columbus (OH) Brookhaven HS) Athletic wing didn’t shoot the ball well in stretches, but can score the ball (he went for 18 in one game we saw). The lefty has good size and was perhaps the best wing on a team that had several capable ones.
Jamison Keefe (7’2″ Jr. C, Troy (NY) High) He has a big body and a wingspan long enough to block some shots flat-footed, and he’ll get some put-backs on offensive rebounds. Also noteworthy is that he’ll keep the ball high and is good at tipping balls he can’t quite grab and then getting the tip. On the down side, he looks awkward running the floor and the speed of the game appears to be an issue. High-major minus prospect.
Luke Loucks (6’5″ Jr. PG-SG, Clearwater (FL) High) This well-built perimeter player impressed with his overall skills, especially some of his passes. Adding to it is that a number of his best passes came on the move, and he really seems to see the floor well. On the down side, he’s not very quick and has a tendency to use his arm enough that some officials will surely call him for an offensive foul, although he seemed to get away with it here. High-major/high-major minus prospect.
Mark Lyons (6’1″ Jr. PG, Albany (NY) South Kent School) Well-built point guard put up some nice scoring numbers and plays with plenty of confidence, but at times seemed to play a little too casually and was erratic with the ball. He’s quick and can slash to the hoop, and his three-point shot isn’t great but he is streaky, and he made a couple of clutch shots from long range. When he’s not erratic from trying to do too much, he can be tough to stop, as evidenced by a 36-point outing in one game and 28 in a later game. High-major minus prospect committed to Xavier.
Bret Marfurt (6’3″ Jr. SG, Guilderland (NY) High) He’s clearly a shooter, as evidenced by his touch from long range, but he did mix in a nice drive and reverse layup one time. He got off to a nice start in the opening minutes against Memphis, then was quiet for much of the remainder of the game.
Kendall Marshall (6’2″ Fr. PG-SG, Dumfries (VA) Bishop O’Connell HS) On a team full of veterans, this thin lefty impressed as a complementary player. He showed the ability to score the ball and a touch from long range, including three three-pointers in one game. As he matures physically, he’ll be one to keep an eye on.
Eddren McCain (6’0″ Jr. PG, LaPlace (LA) Reserve Christian HS) A nice floor leader, he’s solid and unspectacular, effective at running the team. He has good, not great, quickness and can get his offense in between helping teammates. High-major minus prospect.
Leslie McDonald (6’5″ So. SG-SF, Memphis (TN) Briarcrest Christian HS) Excellent scoring wing went for 24 points in one game we saw, and some of it was a little quiet as there wasn’t a chunk that came in a quick stretch. He has a good body and makes some quick slashes to the hoop, which he attacks with authority, and showed a little touch from mid-range along the way. He looks to have plenty of potential.
Joe Meady (6’8″ So. PF, Strawplains (TN) Carter HS) Athletic forward plays mainly inside and has a good body. He didn’t get many chances offensively, although we saw him cash in one chance on a nice turnaround jumper.
Javan Mitchell (6’10” Jr. PF-C, St. Martinville (LA) High) We didn’t see much from him at the offensive end, but he quietly played good defense inside after a couple of early fouls in one game. His body still needs some maturity and his offense is an unknown, but he’s an intriguing high-major minus/mid-major plus prospect.
Greg Monroe (6’10” Jr. SF-PF, Grenta (LA) Helen Cox HS) Widely regarded as one of the elite prospects in the class of 2008, he certainly looks the part. The lefty is long, athletic and very skilled – enough to be a legitimate small forward – and he can rebound well for the wing should he play there. We saw him go for 28 points in one game and 20 in another, and he can hit from long range. So why aren’t we fully sold on him? He seems to be playing effortlessly, as if he’s leaving some of what he has on the table. With all the tools he has, he should dominate and take over games, but that didn’t happen this weekend. Big-time prospect is one to keep an eye on.
Michael Morrison (6’10” Jr. C, St. Petersburg (FL) Lakewood HS) Athletic lefty was impressive with his work at both ends of the floor. Although his offense isn’t there yet, there is some promise there, while he blocked several shots and also ran the floor well, getting some of his 18 points on transition baskets. High-major prospect.
Alex Oriakhi (6’8″ So. PF, Winchendon (MA) School) Big man had his moments, showing a good touch on a couple of mid-range jumpers and getting some rebounds. Fundamentally, he has all the tools to be a star post player, but consistent effort is still an issue for this early Connecticut commit. One notable play was where a small point guard tied him up for a jump ball in one game.
Miguel Paul (6’1″ Jr. PG, Winter Haven (FL) Kathleen HS) Nice floor leader showed a real penchant for getting into passing lanes for steals and fast breaks. He has a slight frame, but good quickness and the ability to drive and dish as well as hit shots from long range to keep defenses honest. Mid-major plus/high-major minus prospect.
Adam Pegg (6’9″ Jr. PF, Clearwater (FL) Palm Harbor HS) Fundamentally sound post player has a mature body and stays home inside. He showed a good touch on some close field goals in one game we saw and looks to be solid but unspectacular. High-major minus prospect.
Damier Pitts (6’0″ Jr. PG, Charlotte (NC) Christian HS) A quick and active guard, he was a busy body in one game we saw as he made a real difference coming off the bench. He showed a good touch from long range and scored in transition, going for 19 points in one game.
L.A. Pomlee (6’8″ Jr. PF, Davenport (IA) Central HS) Athletic wing is a leaper with a solid body, the former of which caught the attention of onlookers in one game as he will go for the dunk when he gets the ball in close. Although he has the athleticism to play small forward, his game resembles that of a power forward more, as his perimeter skills look to need some development if he is to play there. The lefty is quick off his feet and will play bigger, which is a plus.
Phil Pressey (5’7″ Fr. PG, Waltham (MA) Cushing Academy) Already known for his floor leadership, he also showed more scoring ability this time around. While he’s streaky shooting the ball from long range (he had four in one game en route to 24 points, but struggled in another), he can score on drives in traffic and had several good games passing the ball. He also shows a nose for the ball and is relentless on the ball defensively. His body is still immature, but as a basketball player he’s well on his way, as you would expect of the son of a former NBA player.
Will Regan (6’8″ Fr. PF, Buffalo (NY) Nichols School) The fundamentals are already there in good supply for where he’s at right now, although his touch on close shots needs some work. It’s not a surprise that he needs to gain strength, but his presence on the boards was good and he’s active inside.
Delvon Roe (6’8″ Jr. SF, Cleveland (OH) St. Edward’s HS) Well-built athlete has plenty of skills and has continued to get better in the last year. The lefty is good on the drive, although he passed off on the move a little too often here instead of trying to finish the play. He’s around the ball often and will score, mostly from within the three-point line although he is a threat from long range. Big-time prospect.
Ralph Sampson (7’0″ Jr. C, Duluth (GA) Northview HS) The son of the former NBA big man, he has a slight frame for a big man and is likely done growing since he looks mature facially. He wasn’t overly impressive overall, as he’s not overly athletic or mobile inside and didn’t show great offensive skills, although he did get a few post field goals. Still, with his name and his size, someone at the high-major level will take a chance on him.
Andrey Semenov (6’7″ Jr. SF, Great Falls (VA) Notre Dame Academy) Skilled forward looks like the consummate blender player. He has plenty of skills, though he might not stand out all by himself with them, and he uses them to help his team win. Among the things he does are pass the ball to the right player, get loose balls, and move without the ball – all the little things that don’t show up in the box score. He’s not very athletic and needs to get stronger, but he’s a good mid-major plus/high-major minus prospect.
Kewon Short (6’4″ Jr. SF-PF, East Chicago (IN) Central HS) Bulky undersized forward comes to play, and in one game he came in off the bench and got his team going. He battles inside and is quick off his feet, which helps him get rebounds and put-backs, and he can handle passably but will need to upgrade his ball skills more.
Malik Smith (6’1″ So. SG, Roxbury (MA) Madison Park HS) A fine scorer, he had some struggles initially in one game before he got going a little later on. Though more of a scorer than a shooter, he did knock down a couple of shots from long range. Early in the playoffs, he rolled his ankle and was walking very gingerly on it the remainder of the tournament.
Tanner Smith (6’5″ Jr. SG, Alpharetta (GA) Wesleyan HS) We know he can score, but he really struggled at the offensive end in one game we saw against a good defensive team. To his credit, he kept competing.
Dylan Talley (6’5″ So. SG-SF, Burlington (NJ) Life Center Academy) Perimeter player has a mature body and some ball skills, including the ability to handle it a little. He isn’t afraid to go inside, and although he has his share of skills, none will blow you away and he’s not a great athlete. Mid-major prospect.
J.T. Thompson (6’6″ Jr. SF, Monroe (NC) Hope Christian) Well-built forward is very athletic and active and was around the ball often in one game we saw. He didn’t light it up offensively, with his points coming close to the basket and a mid-range jumper. High-major minus prospect has committed to Virginia Tech.
Dion Waiters (6’2″ Fr. SG, Philadelphia (PA) Southern HS) Possessing a mature body for his age, he can drive and score and looks like he could do that all day. He’s not jet-quick, but has enough to get to the basket along with his strength, and showed a little touch from mid-range.
Kemba Walker (6’1″ Jr. PG, New York (NY) Rice HS) In past viewings, his ability to run the show was most noteworthy, but here he looked for his own shot quite often. He scored on drives, which has been a forte, and showed a touch from long range, going for 16 points in a game we saw.
Storm Warren (6’8″ Jr. PF, Monroe (LA) Richwood HS) Well-built forward has a live body, runs the floor well and will make his share of plays at both ends inside. He doesn’t look like a very consistent offensive player, but he will get some put-backs and will also get your attention with the occasional emphatic dunk. High-major prospect.
Johnnie Williams (6’8″ So. PF, Memphis (TN) Briarcrest Christian HS) Well-built forward plays mostly inside, but seems skilled enough that defenders will have to venture away from the basket against him. He runs the floor well and showed a touch from mid-range.
Robert Wilson (6’3″ Jr. SG, Garfield Heights (OH) High) Athletic guard showed nice potential for the wing, scoring off the dribble with several short jumpers. He didn’t score much, but the way he scored was noteworthy.
