"@babatheballer10 is one of the most elite HS players I’ve gotten to really lock in with over the years. #1 player in the Class of 2027. Skillset continues to sharpen up, as you can see in the first clip he listens (first cut wasn’t game speed, but then once I said something he raised up game speed)."

"Can score at all 3 levels! 6’9‼️ Still only 16‼️ S/O his father Ibrahim for believing in me and also at the same time has a great understanding of the game 🏁🏁 🎬 @nextsubject," Brickley added.
