“A.J. is a top 10 player in the class of 2021,” Massaroni said. “Many of the most prestigious college basketball programs and head coaches across the country realize this and spoke with him and his family today. A very exciting day for A.J. and his family.”

Griffin averaged 13.5 points and 4.3 points for the USA U16 team that just won the FIBA Americas Men’s U16 Championship gold medal in Belém, Brazil.

Griffin went for 18 points in the gold medal game when the USA beat Canada 94-71 on June 9.

It’s been a huge June for the Griffin family. Adrian Griffin, the former Seton Hall standout, won an NBA championship as a member of the Toronto Raptors coaching staff.
