Spartanburg, SC- Big Shots South Carolina Jam was another standout event held at the Upward Stars Center. This was another exceptional event in South Carolina that was full of sleepers and high level talent.
Moravian Prep was in control the whole way in the title game as they defeated Franklin Prep 70-53. Moravian Prep is led by 8th grader Eli Ellis. Ellis broke out this past season at Moravian as he was one of the most dynamic guards in the state of NC. He was special again this weekend, doing about everything for Moravian. Ellis is a strong, tough combo guard that is an elite 3 level scorer. Not to mention he is one of the best shooters in the state. He really showed his point guard skills over the weekend finding open shooters and pushing the break. This made Moravian unstoppable and they dominated the competition in the 17U division. Ellis is a 5'11 combo guard in the class of 2025. Look for Ellis to continue his hot streak throughout the summer & into next season.
Jerome Brewer Jr. of NEBC Elite was also a standout performer. Brewer Jr. was no question the most dominant in the entire division. He led all scorers in the division with 23.7 PPG, and he can fill the stat sheet up in many ways. Brewer is a 6'8 forward that scores at will around the paint. He is very quick & versatile as he can take his defenders off the bounce and finish above the rim. Brewer Jr. is a D1 prospect in the class of 2022 & his stock is continuing to rise.
