@levelup_li @madehoops @_BrianReichert @KEDtraining @EthanJSainsbury @theycallmeorji @BflinnHoops @ZSmart914 @CoachNikkoC @trayalexander_ @dougniblock All 3 are future college hoopers.

- Pnini shoots the cover off the ball.

- Orji is the best athlete on the court with heavy upside.

- Sainsbury is a winner. Controls a games tempo and will pick guys up full court.

[Jesse Winter @CoachJWinter]

Great kids off the court too. Very coachable and take accountability!

[Level Up Basketball @levelup_li]

Shout out to some of our top 2028 players highlighted by @madehoops writer/scout @_BrianReichert . 2 high flyers that have some nice upside heading into their Junior campaigns.

@levelup_li @Iamgere10 @_BrianReichert @madehoops @CoachNikkoC @ZSmart914 @BflinnHoops @NERRHoops @Jeff_Kovner @ekess33_MADE @BradWeiss20 @KEDtraining High character player and person. Mature beyond his years. A program builder that will fit a system and is very coachable.

[Jesse Winter @CoachJWinter]

3 great players I’ve had the pleasure of coaching all year. All big upside as they enter high school.

Apollo extremely unselfish and versatile on both ends. Jaylin an elite playmaker off the bounce. Noam a natural athlete with leaping, shot blocking and finishing ability!

[Level Up Basketball @levelup_li]

Shout out to some of our top 2030 players highlighted by MADE Hoops writer/scout @_BrianReichert ! Bright future ahead for Apollo Freed, Jaylin Pinto and Noam Uzam as they head into high school.

[Level Up Basketball @levelup_li]

Grateful for the featured article by writer/scout @_BrianReichert on the @madehoops website showcasing Level Up as one of the premier emerging programs in the Northeast.

The write-up also highlights some of our current and emerging prospects from 14U-17U players.

[Jesse Winter @CoachJWinter]

6’6 High Academic sharpshooter, rim protector and winner. Exploded at DMV Live this weekend and should be a no brainer for a lot of college coaches right now.

Michael Rapaport said it best‼️

Now it’s time to show up big for our non-profit arm the Up Youth Foundation who will be a hosting a Golf Outing on June 8th.

Great people, great golf, & an even greater cause. Come out, support our youth, & be part of a day that makes impact.

[Level Up Basketball @levelup_li]

18-8 overall record for our 14U-17U teams at @madehoops DMV Live in Baltimore, Maryland this weekend.

Proud of the growth and how the program is representing NY basketball on a national stage. More to come 📈

[Jesse Winter @CoachJWinter]

Don’t be fooled by his height. Ethan is a winner and his track record proves it. He competes with anyone at any level, guards 94 feet and is a quality playmaker/decision maker with the rock.

[Ethan Sainsbury @EthanJSainsbury]

After a lot of thought, I’ve decided to move to the Class of 2027 while exploring post-grad opportunities. Excited for what’s ahead and thankful for everyone supporting my journey. 💯 @RecruitTheBronx

[Ben Pnini @PniniBen]

Looking forward to competing this weekend @madehoops DMV LIVE in Baltimore. Our team is currently 5-1 on the circuit!

[Level Up Basketball @levelup_li]

Congratulations to @Iamgere10 on receiving his second Division II college offer from @AdelphiMBB

The 2026 6’7” combo guard has yet to hit his full basketball potential and has a very bright future ahead of him.

[Jesse Winter @CoachJWinter]

Won’t find many players that play harder than Charlie. Not afraid to do the dirty work and be physical. Type of guy college coaches will want to go to war with.

[New England Recruiting Report NERRHoops @NERRHoops]

2027 Charlie Avallone is bringing energy on both ends of the floor in the early game for @levelup_li.

At 6’3” he can defend at a high level against both bigger and smaller players. Was able to create opportunities in the post for easy buckets. #S16

[Jesse Winter @CoachJWinter]

VERY under the radar and really only scratching the surface of his basketball potential. 6’6 athlete that has a soft touch and runs the floor like a gazelle. Lynbrook HS is spoiled with Orji!

[Dylan Thayer @DylanThayer0]

2027 Orji Agwu was good for @levelup_li here tonight. Long & lanky, uses it to his advantage on defensive and to haul in rebounds. Plays with a running motor and can make pull-up jumpers. #S16

[Jesse Winter @CoachJWinter]

Lightning speed and sneaky athletic! Ultimate team player that looks to make noise at Roslyn HS Varsity next year as a sophomore.

[New England Recruiting Report NERRHoops @NERRHoops]

2029 Trystin Pope was using his quick twitch and soft touch to help propel @levelup_li to two big wins this morning!

The guard has a ton of confidence and good feel with the ball in a set offense and takes high IQ jumpers. Was able to hit shots at all three levels. #S16

[Brian Reichert @_BrianReichert]

Just a few standouts from Thursday @levelup_li

Appreciate Jesse Winter, @CoachNikkoC and the entire staff for welcoming me

[Brian Reichert @_BrianReichert]

Checking out @levelup_li entire program tonight

Jesse Winter and his staff have done a great job of getting talent in this program.

Multiple competitive teams.

Lots of college prospects.

[Josh Reynolds @JoshReynolds24]

Not even exaggerating in the slightest when I say that this is one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen…

A no-dip, mid-air 3 ball? Are you kidding me?

I’ve watching this 100x & I don’t plan on stopping any time soon. This is amazing.

[Jesse Winter @CoachJWinter]

One of the Level Up OG’s. Amazing to watch Selena’s journey!

[Level Up Basketball @levelup_li]

Big Congrats to Selena Jones on her commitment to play collegiate basketball at D3 Utica University! She will attend with a 3.7 GPA studying Biology/Pre-Med aiming to become an Orthopedic Doctor.

Selena is one of the original Level Up players, being with us all 9 years!

[Jesse Winter @CoachJWinter]

@levelup_li @Showtime_mikey2 @madehoops @_BrianReichert @BflinnHoops @dougniblock @ekess33_MADE A full on sniper. You heard it here first that he will be a scholarship basketball player one day. A gym rat with an unmatched passion for the game.

[MADE Hoops @madehoops]

17U Level Up CC got a tough 8AM W in their game at NYC Clash 83-78 🗽📈 @levelup_li
