Each and every time Phenom Hoops gets to report or sees a commitment from a player we have seen over the years, it is always a fantastic day. It is great to see players achieve their goal to play at the next level and it is such a great accomplishment for that player.
Here is the latest commitment.
Player: Khalil Genwright
Class: 2023
Committed to: Lemoyne-Owen
What Was Said by Phenom Hoops:
“When watching him throughout our last event at the Phenom Challenge, there weren’t many teams that could slow him down when he was getting into the paint. Using his 6’4 body, Genwright was able to battle through and get around defenders to consistently get paint touches and finishing through contact or at/around the rim. He plays above the rim and can create his own opportunities off the dribble. As you look at him more, his blend of size, athleticism, and versatility helps him a lot with his game, as well as creating a ton of mismatches.”
“The unsigned senior was a name that we were interested in watching more, as he has been seeing an uptick in his recruitment with offers coming his way. And we have said before that he is an underrated guard in the state, especially with his toughness, his ability to get downhill, his blend of size and ability to create, and his overall strength. He continued to lead the way and showcase what we have consistently seen throughout his career.”
“Genwright really put on a scoring show on Day 2, as he can really be a tough matchup for many opponents. He uses his 6’4 frame well to score the ball on all levels, he plays above the rim, and really leaves it all out there on the court; love his energy and motor as he just plays hard. Filled it up for his team towards the end of Day 2.”
“Big guard – 6’4″ but plays bigger. Excels in getting downhill and getting paint touches. Proven ability to make good decisions in the lane for himself and his teammates. Capable 3 point shooter that you must close out on. Active rebounder.”
