My first glimpse came in December 2014 at the Hoop Mountain Classic at St. Andrew’s in Barrington. Little did I suspect in watching a Cushing Academy team led by sophomore Makai Aston-Langford, and later Reeves with his Brimmer and May group, that I was witness to the future of Providence basketball.
And oh what a future it is shaping up to be.
Reeves and his Brimmer gang have returned to Barrington on multiple occasions since. I’ve tracked him there for the past three years, seen him at the Scholar Roundball Classic, watched as he took on prep powerhouse Northfield Mount Hermon, and against the imposing Omari Spellman of MacDuffie, but nothing impressed me more than what I saw this past December.
