With the high school season approaching and less than two months away, preseason team events are coming every weekend, with plenty of quality ones left to come in the Delaware Valley. That includes the second edition of “The Warm-Up,” put on by Philly USA Basketball and Olympus Prep this weekend at a couple of Public League schools.
Some of the top programs from Philadelphia, New York and New Jersey will be coming down to Imhotep Charter and the High School of the Future for game sets on Friday night, as well as all day Saturday and Sunday.
Included in that group are ‘Tep Panthers and Andre Noble’s group of Division I-bound seniors, including Dahmir Bishop (Xavier), Jamil Riggins Jr. (Binghamton), Donta Scott (TBD) and more; Abington and the Ghost’s pair of Big 5 commits, Eric Dixon (Villanova) and Lucas Monroe (Penn); a loaded Camden (N.J.) squad led by high-major 2020 wing Lance Ware, and the Patrick School (N.J.) as well as Our Savior Lutheran (N.Y.), which each feature one of the nation’s top lead guards in senior Al-Amir Dawes and junior Posh Alexander, respectively.
