Adrien Stevens, We-R1 - There are a lot of guards who like to try to attack the rim. There aren’t many that do it as instinctively or efficiently as Stevens. A big, power guard at 6-foot-4, he’s plenty capable of bullying his way to the rim, but often doesn’t need to as he has a knack for improvising his path, just enough to find the gaps without wasting movement. Stevens, who came into the spring ranked no. 92 in the national class, is also a capable enough shooter when in rhythm to keep defenders honest.

Jemison highlights
I flipped through EYBL games for a few minutes the other day. Served as my annual reminder that spring AAU basketball is horrible. That and the HS/AAU game is getting worse as preparation for the next level. Team defense is so bad that the most talented players never need to shoot a jumper if they don’t want.
Does Kon have several brothers that play ball?
More obnoxious names - the Knueppel kids or Roger Clemens’ kids?
What are Clemens kids named? I’m not aware of this
Bronco Mendenhall’s kids.
Gotta appreciate all these recruiting guys out there covering AAU basketball, cranking out articles while knowing nobody cares right now.
Yep. I’m sure they’ll be the next iteration of the Plumlees.
The new frontier in AAU recruiting. Colleges advertise their alums pro contacts, now AAU teams boast their NIL earnings.
This kid popped off. Saw clips and was like "Oh snap UVA get on that. Saw one of staff follow him this morning. Aye
Benefit of no Perry is @Hooandtrue can keep grinding 2025 PG tape
One portal recruiting is over, we need to 4 man literally every single Adrien Stevens aau game and tell him “you are our next Brogdon”. Even a high academic/I remember bugging HGN and him saying that could be a factor that favors UVA.
Hate that Shaka Smart spent the entire year camping out his games building that relationship with him. Hopefully closer to home + academics + Brogdon comp help
