Tommy Denvir, Delaware Valley
The sophomore guard netted a game-high 17 points, scoring his team's last eight points in Friday night's 42-38 win over Watchung Hills. It was the third time in the past four games Denvir scored 11 or more points.
Jalen Fleming, Timothy Christian
The four-year starter has averaged 28.5 points so far in leading the Tigers to a 3-1 start, scoring 20 or more in each. He enters the week 415 points shy of 2,000.
Alex Grospe, South River
The Gettysburg commit dropped a total of 90 points in recent back-to-back games against Henry Hudson and Highland Park, netting 46 and 44 respectively. Grospe, with 1,599 career points, is averaging 34.3 points per game this year despite passing up shots in an effort to get his less-experienced teammates more involved.
Jordan Jones, South Plainfield
The senior guard is averaging 17.7 points for the 6-1 Tigers, and has already scored nearly half as many points as he did all last season. Jones has registered 33 points twice this season, one of those coming in a six-point decision over Perth Amboy.
Tim LaCanna, Somerville
The junior hit for 21 points and grabbed nine rebounds Thursday in a 58-50 win over Middlesex, then scored 13 points and had nine rebounds Saturday in the Pioneers' win over Haddon Township.
Jackson Trevaskiss, Voorhees
The senior notched 15 points and 12 rebounds Saturday as the undefeated Vikings' beat Nottingham 48-35. He's scored double digits in three games, so far.
