The 6-foot-1 point guard is ranked No. 9 at his position by 247Sports.com and helped the Mass Rivals go 21-0 and win four tournaments in July, culminating with the Adidas Summer Championships last week in Las Vegas.
“Makai is a dynamic type of guard and he’s elite on both ends of the floor,” his AAU coach, Vin Pastore, said Wednesday on The 4 Quarters Podcast. “He can get by anybody on the offensive end but he can cover the best player on the other team on the defensive end. And that’s what he did all summer. And that’s difficult to do. He scores around the rim like no other guard in grassroots basketball.
“UConn and Louisville and Providence have worked very hard on him and he’ll surely take visits to those three places.”
At Brewster, he will join former St. Raymond’s of the Bronx wing Sid Wilson, who reclassed to 2018; Class of 2017 wing Aaron Wheeler, a Stamford, Conn., native who formerly attended St. Andrew’s School (R.I.) and is Ashton-Langford’s Mass Rivals teammate; and fellow 2017s Thomas Allen (Garner Road High School) and Michael Okauru, (Ravenscroft School).
