Elijah Brooks played the last two years for us at HCU and is available in the portal. Heβs the real deal:
β’ Two-year starter who led our team in scoring (12.3 PPG), finished second in rebounding (4.5 RPG), and led in steals (1.5 SPG) this season.
β’ Switchable defender who can guard 1-4 effectively.
β’ 6β4β PG (6β3β without shoes, 6β4β with shoes. We measure).
β’ American Conference+ level athlete β plays downhill, explosive vertical athlete with high-level strength and burst.
β’ Extremely high basketball IQ β Elijah initiated our offense from the point, which included seven formations and over 50 sets/variations.
β’ Developed into an elite pick-and-roll player β rarely missed a pocket pass or read. Float game established.
β’ Barkley game (watch the 11/27/24 game vs. NAU for the full Barkley bag including 29 PTS on 13-19 FG). Most teams run a double at him and are forced to play in rotation.
β’ Elite cutter off the ball
β’ Game-changer in transition with his speed and vision
β’ Career 189/381 (.496 FG%) β all at the NCAA Division I level
β’ Broke his hand this season, but itβs fully healed with no restrictions. Heβs been working out daily in our gym and is 100% ready to go. There will be no issue with the medical hardship as we have x-rays, documents, and info from doctors, specialists and surgeons. He appeared in 8 game, all in the first semester.
Call me with any questions. Iβll tell you everything you need to know.
Note: Last season we had two high level players at HCU enter the portal for enhanced revenue opportunities: Julian Mackey (to FIU) and Bryson Dawkins (to YSU). Both were double-figure scorers who absolutely crushed it at their next school. Elijah is cut from the same cloth and will do the same for you.
Hit me up!
@HaydenGirlsBbal State Champs! One thing that many donβt notice is I didnβt once see our girls argue a call or put their palms up in disbelief to the ref. Our girls never flinched when teams went on runs against us. Tough as nails! Never quit! Canβt beat someone that doesnβt quit

Itβs Haydenβs first win over the Junior Blues since 2022.
