Mateen Cleaves Jr. off to a hot start in Peach Jam.

2028 rained 3s off the catch, got free for floater, and used increased physicality.

Showed adeptness for space creation off the bounce.

Finished w 22pts, six boards 3 AST

Last year, I was really impressed with 2028 6'4 Mateen Cleaves Jr. and that was backed up at the @Top100Camp. @Soldiers_Salute @Mateen_Cleaves

And he is showing it once again. Really like his physicality and how smooth he can operate from multiple levels. Again, one of the more complete guards in the class.

Through 2 games at #PeachJam at #EYBL: 23ppg, 5.5rpg, 3.5apg, shooting 55FG% and 63% from 3. #PhenomHoops

I am 100% behind Devin Booker here. Last night was not a good look for our league. Let me be clear, we didn’t lose because of officiating, but that doesn’t make last night any less important. If the referees are going to demand respect from the players - as they should - then the players should demand respect from the referees. When a referee is missing calls and clearly disrespecting the players, almost mocking them, they must be held accountable. Nobody who loves this game enjoyed watching that last night. They want to see the players compete at the highest level. The league needs be far more aggressive about this kind of thing. All players and all fans deserve it.

[NCAA March Madness @MarchMadnessMBB]

Michigan State has plenty of history with iconic point guards 🤩

I was a freshman at State and went to @MSU_Basketball’s victory over George Washington in the first round of the NIT on March 12, 1997 at the Breslin.

My senior year I was in Indy watching @Mateen_Cleaves & Co. cut down the nets.

Don’t take this streak for granted.
