People like Shadrak are not replaceable. This is a young man that I would be grateful to have as a mentor for my son. This is a young man who will win at anything he chooses to do, which for now is basketball. Whatever comes next, it’s a blessing to be part of the journey.

Yah I love this kid Shadrak, pure leader. @TMMRecruiting
Full Szn Mixtape Class of 2024 Shadrak Lasu Blessed to have finished my highschool career with Northstar. Recruitment still open. Onto the Next. youtu.be/3obYmqBBByw?si…
Came on strong to finish the season. @KalAlejo is going to be a do-it-all piece at the next level.

I would like to thank @NorthstarPrep and @DRLeonard_23 for giving me an amazing 3 years with this program. Didn’t finish the season on how we wanted but still happy that I ended my senior year with this group. Thank you again for allowing me to have an amazing senior year.
If there’s a kid I’ve seen all year who is criminally under-recruited, it’s him.

One of the most unique and versatile prospects left in Canada.

8-9 year olds needing a "Transfer Request Form" to switch clubs is WILD to me Even MORE wild is a club saying they are going to try and block the request to be released If this is you club's / league's policy...you are CLEARLY not about the kids
Has been an absolute force this year, proving to be one of the top forwards in the country. Team defense and ball control abilities are already elite with massive potential that is still barely being scratched on the offensive end. @ShadrakLasu @DRLeonard_23 @NPACanada

Highlights NJC #5 @NorthstarPrep @DRLeonard_23
Three level scorer who has taken it upon himself to also develop into a premiere isolation defender. Showed the ability this past weekend to lock down and disrupt primary ballhandlers for 94 feet. Multiple coaches from USports, JUCO and NCAA levels have taken notice.

The ceiling for this kid is ridiculous. Is already doing a lot of things at a high level and it’s wild to think how much more he can still add.

Averaged 26ppg over the weekend going 2-2 without any front court players. Fearless attacking offensively with one of the quickest triggers on his jumper you’ll find. It’s effortless and he’s only going to get bigger, stronger and more athletic - dad is 6’2”, brother is 6’3” 👀

Lots of talented guards in the 2025 class. Debatable if anyone is actually ahead of @NjoyaWaris. Can get 30 against the top competition in North America, can set the table with the best, and earlier this year had a 20 rebound game at the @Terrific24FCP. More complete than most.

The Alejo kids can hoop. 👀
The kid will keep growing, he’s already a high level scoring threat and coachable. Someone should get on him early.

League leaders. Dominant at their positions. Battle tested in 🇺🇸 and 🇨🇦. Despite dozens of coaches calling and asking, neither has yet to receive a single legit D1 offer. Make it make sense.

Academics Matters. * Prep School Showcase * Workshops/ClinicsSee a lot of young players skipping steps & working on advanced combo moves when they have yet to master the in & out with progressions. Make sure your foundation strong. Don’t get tricked by social media!

Love what I do for a living, love travelling again and building relationships and will never complain about that. But... There's nothing like being home and hanging out with our newborn.
Shadrak Lasu is now leading the timeout on the bench. Squatted down talking to his teammates as if he were the coach of the program. You simply don't see this kind of leadership levels very often. Rare breed. @TMMRecruiting

This could start a new wave of USport ➡️ D1 transfers. NCAA schools want proven talent and there is tons of talent, highly touted or not, that develop at the USport level. If you want a chance to be successful it’s not D1 or bust. Go where you’re wanted and prove yourself
Tyson Dunn has committed to Buffalo! The Western University grad transfer led Canada in Assists this past season

Amare Allen is a D1 kid, if you don't agree then I really don't know what game your watching. @TMMRecruiting
Getting a lot of inquiries about transfer prospects & frankly I get it. You want guys with experience but in the same breath there’s something to be said about high school prospects who can come in with no prior college experience. Building a program takes a mix of everything.
Can you call yourself a PREP team if the players on your team all don’t go to the same school? or is that a Club team? Thoughts?
Session 4 NPA Film. Finished the NPA season 5-6. NPA Nationals March 21-25. All film is on this tweet and on my YouTube link to watch youtu.be/1ioSeXV0ehc @NPACanada
Parents & a lot of kids now want quick success & really think this basketball game is a sprint. They switch clubs & schools thinking that will fix there problem. The long race wins. Winning a U12 youth tournament is not more important than development!
🚨NEW FOR THE MAPLE MINUTE🚨 With #CEBLFreeAgency opening earlier this month, and the Protected List Deadline coming up March 2nd, I thought I would catch everyone up with all the signings so far. Check it out!👇🏻🔥👀 @themapleminute @TMMRecruiting themapleminute.com/post/2024-cebl…

MONSTER double double from Shadrak Lasu last NPA session 🔥 @ShadrakLasu was unstoppable on in Northstar’s game against Lincoln. Shadrak had 17 points to go alongside TWENTY-ONE rebounds. Can’t forget to mention the SIX blocks he had too 🤯
It takes time to build something special. Patience & consistency are needed on this marathon!
