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: Lamont'e Cousar
Class: 2023
Committed to: Livingstone

What Was Said by Phenom Hoops:

'Finishing up, we look at a player that arguably stood out as the most consistently productive camper on this team, Lamonte Cousar. He's a big, strong, mobile forward prospect with an intriguing skill set and nice offensive versatility. Cousar showed the ability to make plays with the ball in his hands or overwhelm opponents with his motor around the basket. He's a great rebounder with the tools to push transition play and finish strong or set up others' Coach Laney on Cousar: 'Lamonte's strengths is his hands and ability to always be ready to catch the ball and finish. This is an elite skill. He needs to improve his defensive effort and attention to detail on that end of the floor. For his size and position, Lamonte has the makeup to develop into a solid, well-rounded prospect. He should continue to work on foot speed and developing post moves in order to maximize his ability.' Cousar made an excellent impact during his time at camp and should return as the clear leader of Scotland next season.' ' NC Phenom 150 Evaluation

'Cousar has really become a popular name with Phenom Hoops over the last month or so. 'He showcased his game with us at the Phenom 150, where he was one of the more dominant scorers at the camp, and then continued that play this weekend at the Phenom Challenge. He has a terrific inside-out game, using his strong frame to gain an advantage down low in the post but also displays good touch on his jumper and stretches the floor.' He is quickly becoming a name to remember in the 2023 class and he could be in for a big summer if he continues to produce like he has.' ' Patrick O'Brien

'What first stuck out to me about Lamonte was his strong, mature frame and how he was able to use it to get whatever he wanted in the paint area. He also showed his craftiness in the lane as well as has the ability to be an acrobatic finisher here and there. Not only is he strong and can finish well through contact, but he also had a high motor today which made him very active on defense throughout the entire game. Lastly, Cousar showed through his solid mechanics that he has the potential to be a bigger guy that can stretch the floor, which will open up his dominant downhill game in the future. I hope college coaches take the time to look at this kid as his mature body will allow him to come into a program and make an immediate impact someday.'
