WATCH: 2023 No. 1 player DJ Wagner puts up 25 points in season opener

Camden (N.J.) High and Roselle (N.J.) Roselle Catholic, two of New Jersey’s top basketball teams, faced off Friday night to open the 2021-22 season in the Garden State.

The game also featured two of New Jersey’s top players in consensus five-star prospects in Camden’s DJ Wagner and Roselle Catholic’s Simeon Wilcher.

Wagner won the battle, and his team won the war Friday night, which was broadcast on for a national audience on ESPNU. The point guard scored 25 points despite bloodying his nose and leg cramps as Camden held off Roselle Catholic by a score of 67-64.
