Drew League Championship Is Set August 10, 2024 The Championship is set Mecca Cheaters vs Nationwide Souljas
BRANDON MOSS NAMED WEEK 3 PLAYER OF THE WEEK June 19, 2024 “Wait until Bag gets back” was a common refrain from the Elevate core for the first 2 weeks of the 2024 season. Although the team came into week 3 with a .500 record, it was clear that when 6’10 forward Brandon Moss – affectionately referred to as “Body Bag” thanks to his signature slam dunk celebration – they fully expected him to revitalize the team, bringing back the “Tuff Fades” identity they still haven't lost despite their rebrand. In his week 3 debut, Body Bag didn't disappoint. 33 points and 6 rebounds later, it's clear that the multitude of opportunities Moss received after last year's Drew League championship have sharpened his nose for the ball, which he'll drag down from heights that seem unreal to the average human. The 2-man chemistry between Bag and Frank “Nitty” Session is core to what makes their team so dangerous. The lob threat means you can't leave the lanky leaper alone in the paint, and with Nitty’s eye for open shooters and lightning fast first step, Body Bag’s mere presence on the court gives opponents too many variables to calculate on defense… and then, he turns out to be just as mobile as the team's captain, creating a massive migraine for anyone looking to stop them from repeating.
SEK HENRY NAMED WEEK 5 PLAYER OF THE WEEK July 1, 2024 With just 4 seconds left on the clock in I-Can All Stars’ 26-point beatdown of Rex 6 on Sunday, Player of the Week Sek Henry pitched one last jumper from just over the halfcourt line watching as it sailed through the hair and whispered through the net as the buzzer sounded. It was an appropriately cold-blooded move for a player nicknamed The Viper. Here's the thing: there was never any doubt the unnecessary shot was going in. There rarely is. Henry possesses one of the silkiest jump shots in the Drew League, a high-arching thing of beauty as smooth as the danger noodle from which he takes his nickname. It's made him the most dangerous weapon in I-Can's arsenal, the point of the spear for a high powered offense that can get darn near anything it wants, any time. The only thing disappointing about the final play – at least for Sek, if not for Rex 6, who didn't really need the salt in the wound of the blowout – is that it did NOT give him his 50th point of the game. Instead he would just have to “settle” for 47 points 3 rebounds and 3 assists on the way to being named Player Of The Week and walking away with the highest point total of the season so far.
