2015 Highlights
2015 Full GamePersonal Statement
I have been told by a college coach that I will be a better college player than a high school player. Indeed, my June 2015 Evaluation from Standard of Excellece Basketball Academy Prospect Camp(Invitation Only), in pertinent part, provided, "John will be playing college basketball" and "Can play college basketball at a high level." I am a team player, very coachable, work hard in practice and in games, a natural leader, and realize that I am a student first, and an athlete second.

- "John Newton, a 6'7 2015 170lb prospect of East Carteret HS (Beaufort,NC), post player with good size and great length. He is a pass first player that is looking to get his teammates involved early. He sees the floor well hitting his teammates cutting to the rim. He understands the game and is a good screener helping his team get open shots. He plays the game with a high motor and crashes the boards hard on both ends of the floor creating extra possessions for his team."
