Syracuse Basketball Recruiting: AAU Weekend Update

Nike EYBL - Minneapolis

Jordan Tucker, a 6-8/200 4-star forward, is running with the NY Lightning this summer. The Lightning went 3-2 over the weekend. Tucker had a big showing, averaging 14.2 points per game, including a summer-high 28 on Saturday. He also grabbed just over 6 rebounds per game.

Alterique Gilbert, a 6-1/155 4-star guard, recently received an offer from Syracuse and plans to take an official visit this summer. Gilbert is freakishly quick on both ends of the court, and is beginning to gain national attention. Over the weekend, he averaged 10.6 points, 6.8 assists and 5.2 rebounds per game. Team CP3 finished the weekend with a 4-1 record and won the regular season EYBL championship (15-2 overall).

Kevin Huerter, a 6-5/170 4-star guard, played in 3-of-5 games this weekend for the Albany City Rocks. Huerter also plays on the Shen varsity baseball team, which limited his action this weekend. Kevin averaged 16.7 points per game, largely in-part to a 30-point performance on Monday against Southern Stampede. Albany City went 3-2 over the weekend and qualified for Peach Jam.

UA Association - New York

Trevon Duval, 6-3/175 5-star guard, is playing with WE R1 in the Under Armour Association. Duval continued his dominating summer, averaging 19.3 points and 5.8 assists per game. Trevon remains SU's top target for the 2017 recruiting cycle. WE R1 went 2-2 this weekend.

Hamidou Diallo, a 6-4/170 4-star guard, is a 2017 shooting guard from Connecticut. Diallo runs with the New York Jayhawks, and holds offers from many D-1 schools. Syracuse began to show interest a few weeks ago, but have not offered. Hamidou averaged 15.8 points and 3.8 rebounds per game.

Peach Jam is the final Nike EYBL session of the season. It will take place on July 15-19 in North Augusta, GA.

The UA Association finals will take place on July 15-18 in Atlanta, GA.
