PHILADELPHIA — In the span of just a few months, J.J. Moore has gone from playing in relative obscurity on Long Island to being the object of attention for virtually every team in the Big East.
“I blew up this spring,” Moore said, referring to his performances at the Bob Gibbons Tournament of Champions in North Carolina and the Rutgers Spring Fling.
A 6-foot-5, 190-pound small forward from Brentwood, N.Y., Moore performed in front of coaches from Pittsburgh, Louisville, Marquette, St. John’s, Rutgers, UConn and Providence during action Thursday at the Reebok All-American Camp at Philadelphia University. He dropped a game-high 18 points, including two 3-pointers, in an 89-70 win over the Allen Iverson team Thursday.
