15U has kids from 13-15. Most games I’ve seen had NOBODY near his height. It was embarrassing. The worst part is they weren’t even winning.

Here’s raw footage from him in Vegas. He can shoot the ball well, but look at the competition :mjlol:



I was actually wondering how he did at the Nike academy, I have to look that up


I won’t say he isn’t the best, but if you know AAU ball then yeah....you expect the cream of the crop to play up

Facts, he’s clearly talented with upside nobody can take that away. I just can’t buy him being the next KD or the best high school player since Lebron when he’s playing 15U.

It’s a different era though so I gotta give him a fair shake. The AAU I came up in the best players played. 17U regardless. There was no real age brackets at ABCD Camp and things like that.

:comeon: i just read up on the Nike Academy and everyone has the same questions I have. They also said Cade Cunningham was by far the best player:comeon:

Bro go read what I said:stopitslime:

I said that they had ONLY Cade and Jalen over Emoni:russ:

Emoni is considered the third best player in the country regardless of class,I clearly said that:hhh:

You right :mjlol: you did say that.

I think the kid is talented and I wanna see him make another leap this year. Still not being sold on the next Lebron or KD talk though :whoa:

Nah never thought he was as good as Lebron or KD. But he has to get those comparisons because he’s in the same position as they are,it’s unfair but that’s just what it is

Emoni will be the most hyped recruit ever if he keeps up his current level of dominance. As it stands, he was the best 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th grader ive ever seen. If he sustains his number 1 ranking through high school, that is an insane feat. Regardless of how his pro career goes

how often were you watching this guy when he played in 6th grade? and how many other 6th grade games do you watch to compare players? i dont mean that in some weird way btw, Im legitimately curious here

That's a fair question :ehh:. I used to work at a sports academy in Georgia with camps of all ages. So I've seen a good amount of youth basketball games. Even without camp experience, you can have a fair understanding of what type of skill level you can expect from certain age groups tho.

Only watched Emoni on YouTube so there's definitely some mixtapes bias. But Emoni was pulling off some complex moves as a youth
