Jermaine caught my eye when I saw him play at the Motor City Roundball Classic. In that game he scored 28 points, hauled down three rebounds, and dished out six assists, for his Windsor (Canada) Forster team. Jermaine, can shoot the lights out of the ball. He has a beautiful stroker. He knocked down 11-15 shots and went 4-6 from beyond the arch. Not to bad a ball handler too. A player to watch from Canada for sure this year.

Jermaine: I would definitely try to make everyone around me better. Bring a positive attitude and work as hard as I could everyday. And someone who isn’t afraid to step up and take on a challenge.
