2024 Recruiting: Tahaad Pettiford

[navery12]

Tahaad Pettiford was the smallest player out on the floor but he brought a lot of game with him in his matchup with Team Melo. The rising junior stands roughly 5-foot-11, 160-pounds but he is long, crafty and skilled.

Scoring wise, he wasn't efficient but he did make big plays and buckets coming down the stretch of the second half against guys a year older than him.

The Jersey City (N.J.) Hudson Catholic point guard has a dynamic handle, able to create scoring opportunities for himself and others. He makes shots, gets in the lane and has vision as a passer.

He already ranks inside the Top50 of the 2024 class and holds offers from UConn, Rutgers, Seton Hall and St. John's amongst others.

He finished with nine-points and five-assists.

I think Isaiah Coleman is the name to keep an eye on from that article. I know we aren't mentioned in the article, but looks like Moore has been spending a lot of time on him and he is the type of scorer we have been lacking.

Love his game, and yes we have been on him hard.

“I didn’t really play that well the last game, so you know I wanted to come out hot in this one,” said the Hudson Catholic (NJ) guard of his scalding early scoring spree, which enabled the Lightning to get jump-started.

“We really wanted to come out hot and set our tone in this last game (of the EYBL Session 1).”
