Justin Winston scored 17 points and Mikey Watkins added 15 markers as Team IZOD defeated Playtime 63-53 to win the NJ 12U AAU State Championship. Jalen Lecque led Playtime with 14 points in the loss. Top Performers
Justin Winston Forward (Team IZOD)- Winston once again had a great showing. He totally dominated the game on both ends of the floor. He constantly finishes off passes and put backs after rebounds. On the other end he anchors the defense by altering and blocking shots. When IZOD needed a big play Justin stepped up and got it done. He should be considered as a serious POY candidate.
Tyrek Chambers Forward (Team IZOD)- Chambers had a tough time scoring the ball but IZOD benefitted from his ball handling skills. He was able to push the ball against pressure and make some impressive plays including a great behind the back pass to a streaking Jalen Brooks in the first half.

Jalen Lecque Guard (Playtime)- The tough combo guard got going a little too late in this one. He caught his groove from the perimeter during the 4th quarter comeback attempt.
Rob Higgins Guard (Playtime)- Higgins made a couple of key plays as Playtime tried to steal the victory. He wasn’t as hot a previous outings but he made the defense take notice with his aggressiveness and willingness to shoot the rock.
