City of Palms: Day 5 - Nerlens Noel
Posted Dec 22, 2011
Nerlens Noel (Tilton School 2013) – Playing in the Signature Series rather than the main tournament, Noel went somewhat unnoticed this week but he put up a monster performance today. He finished with 8 points, 21 rebounds, 6 blocks, and 4 assists in a 14 point Tilton victory. Multiple times after corralling a defensive board Noel took off and led the break himself showing off his improved handle and impressive end to end speed. His offense continues to improve as he showed aggression attacking the rim and finished a pair of highlight reel dunks in the half court.
