Kansas commit Markese Jacobs leads Chicago Uplift in City Playoffs 1st Rd!

Scott Comeau — Wed, 08 Feb 2017 04:30:58 +0000

The most exciting time of year for Chicago HS basketball fans is February's Public League tournament. It's the only time of year where you see top teams from across the city facing off. Many times teams drive over an hour in traffic to face crosstown opponents for the first time.
After going 10-0 in conference play, Chicago Uplift is the North's number 1 seed and have earned home court. Their first round opponent was Urban Prep Englewood from the South Side. Led by 22 points from versatile, athletic Jayden Gasby, U.P. Englewood made the game close until the final buzzer with host Uplift holding on to win 55-52 and advance to round 2.
2 of the city's most electrifying players, the Jacobs brothers led Uplift as they have all season. Kansas commit, sophomore PG Markese Jacobs led Uplift with 17 points. Senior Demarius Jacobs (SIU commit) and sophomore transfer Deion Jackson added 13 points.
Next up Uplift hosts the Farragut Admirals from the city's Red West division.
Ballislife will continue following Uplift and the Jacobs brothers in their quest to win a Chicago city title and Illinois 2A state title.

Charlie Moore leads Morgan Park into Simeon: Chicago's Biggest Rivalry!

Scott Comeau — Mon, 14 Dec 2015 00:51:32 +0000

Charlie Moore is used to these big games by now. A 4-year varsity player for powerhouse Morgan Park, Moore (Memphis-commit) has catapulted himself to the top of the list of seniors in the state of Illinois. Morgan Park's biggest rival is Simeon (located just north of MP on Vincennes on the city's South Side). Every time these conference foes meet, the gym is soldout and packed to the rafters. Scheduled for Thursday, Dec 10, the game was postponed when an auxiliary basket was stuck over the court, sending fans home from soldout Simeon. On Friday Dec 11, the fans returned and Charlie Moore turned in a signature performance.
Morgan Park prevailed 70-65 and Charlie finished with 27 hard-earned points (7-8 FT) including 7 of his team's 9 fourth quarter points.
You'll also see Simeon's junior point guard Evan Gilyard continuing his equally rapid ascent this season. He finished with 12 points to lead the Wolverines.
Enjoy this taste of intense Chicago high school basketball with this raw footage!

5-star Ankle-Breaker Alterique Gilbert is UConn's Next High-Scoring PG! Official Ballislife Mixtape!

Scott Comeau — Mon, 26 Oct 2015 00:32:07 +0000

Alterique Gilbert showed he's one of the nation's finest point guards at this year's Nike Global Challenge. Held at Chicago's Whitney Young HS during the July live period, the nation's top college coaches sat courtside all week watching the world's elite rising juniors and seniors.
The 6-foot, 5-star floor general attends Miller Grove HS in Lithonia, Georgia (2016), where he averaged 18.5 points, 4.7 rebounds, 6.2 assists and 5.3 steals per game as a junior.
Gilbert began to generate national attention with his impressive performance at last summer's Peach Jam. Following that up with a strong season at Miller Grove, Gilbert was one of the best players on the Nike EYBL this spring, averaging 15.0 points and 4.9 assists (second in EYBL).
What caught our attention (in person) was how the electrifying point guard guard still putup big scoring numbers throughout the event, playing alongside fellow elite players Malik Monk, Tony Bradley and Maverick Rowan.
In one game, Gilbert caught fire for the South, going 12-of-19 from the floor, including 6-of-10 from way downtown.
Guiding his USA SOUTH team to the title (120-109), Gilbert averaged 21 points, 5 assists, 4 rebounds, 2 steals for the tourney (not including 40+ point performance in the scrimmage).
We hope to catch UConn-bound Gilbert and Miller Grove this season...
