Luke Smith is the best unsigned player in New England over 6’6. He is an absolute no brainer at the scholarship level. The transfer you’re waiting on will not help you win more than Luke.
Our guys win here and win at the next level. Check the tape.

Theo Edema is as elite as it comes. Freshman has the whole package at 7 ft. Competes like a post grad. Tough, strong, active — can’t wait to see his growth.
Jack Mchale ‘24 from Fairfield Prep is the best prospect nobody has heard about.

Prep basketball family lost a great one last week and far too young. Heavy hearts at Lawrence Academy and West Nottingham Academy but these communities were blessed to have KJ if only for a little while. Rest in peace, my friend. You will be missed.
