Coaches. Take a look at Ascend Preps(@AscendPrep) 6’4 Andy Kabasele(@AndyKabase68267). The Calgary Alberta Native is a complete player! We call him the modern day Rudy Gay! Knockdown shooter with a high release point, great on ball defender, attacks the rim with poise and he also has a 35 inch vertical!!! Numerous D2 and LM D1 programs have been interested in him and I suggest each Coach to do the same! @KevinMoses38 @Uorangemen2 @wesblairbrown @Joe_NPH @NorthPoleHoops @NPHShowcase @michaeltorres03 @DrewEbanks @DevinRecord @themapleminute

Coaches. It’s time to wake up on Class of 2026 6’2 Jazz Stewart (@jazzstewart_1 ). Arguably one of the best in his class. Can get to the rim at any time while creating his own shot. Finds his rhythm by getting others involved while being THE leader on the court. This past weekend at @VerbalCommits Pittsburgh Showcase Jazz made it clear he was one of the best in the gym. Picking up interest from Numerous USPORTS, D2 and D1 Programs along the way. I advise all coaches to take a look at this intriguing prospect! @AscendPrep @VCsalesdirector @StanJonesBBall @KevinMoses38 @Uorangemen2 @Joe_NPH @MikeDChambers @michaeltorres03 @DrewEbanks @Tariq_NPH @david_harmon @themapleminute

Coaches. Another player to wake up on. Might be the most slept on hooper in Canada! Class of 2026 6’2 Shaheem Tantawi ( @Shaheemtantawi) is arguably one of the best 2 way Guards in his class. Smooth off the dribble game and will guard the toughest matchups day in day out. Big time player who does the little things. Straight DAWG!!! @AscendPrep Great showing for Shaheem in Pittsburgh at the @VerbalCommits showcase! @VCsalesdirector @StanJonesBBall @MikeDChambers @KevinMoses38 @Uorangemen2 @Joe_NPH @david_harmon @themapleminute @Tariq_NPH @michaeltorres03 @DrewEbanks
