Primetime Shootout All-Tournament team:

First Team:

Lamont Jones, American Christian, Aston Pa.: Jones had perhaps the best quarter of the tournament. The junior Louisville signee hit six 3-pointers in the third quarter against Rancocas Valley en route to a 25 point day. Jones went for 24 on Sunday against South Kent.

Mike Rosario, St. Anthony’s, Jersey City, N.J.: Playing on the first day of the weekend in Piscataway, the senior Rutgers signee shined in his first game at the RAC, scoring 32 points against John Carroll.

Greg Monroe, Helen Cox, Greta, La.: In one of the better games on the tournament, Monroe scored 24 points and 9 rebounds in leading the Cougars past Whitney Young of Chicago.

Lance Stephenson, Lincoln, Brooklyn: No player made as definitive a statement as the junior forward Stephenson. His 35-point, 16-rebound performance was the highlight of the tournament. Born Ready was ready for his close-up.

Doron Lamb, Bishop Loughlin, Brooklyn: This spot was supposed to go to Kevin Jones of Mount Vernon, but Lamb’s 28 point performance against Trenton Catholic was the highlight of a lackluster final day of the tournament. This sophomore is going to be something special.

Honorable mention: Isaiah Thomas, South Kent; Samardo Samuels, St. Benedict’s; Brandon Jennings, Oak Hill Academy; Kevin Jones; Mount Vernon; A.J. Rompza, Whitney Young; and Dexter Strickland, St. Patrick’s.
