Riley is a dynamic point guard with elite shooting touch, floor command, and next-level poise. He’s the engine behind the offense, protecting the ball, reading the floor with sharp awareness, and finding or creating shots like a master surgeon. Riley doesn’t just knock down shots, he raims them with efficiency at a blistering 42% from deep while leading Non-Public A in New Jersey with 71 three-pointers. But he’s far more than a shooter. He rebounds at a high clip for a guard, averaging over 5 boards per game, and shows an underrated physical presence every trip down the floor. With tight handles, composure under pressure, and the ability to run any system, Riley is a versatile floor general who thrives in high-level competition and makes everyone around him better.

This past season, he averaged 18.1 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 3 assists while guiding Immaculata to a 20-win season as the starting point guard. That leadership role helped him grow into a more vocal, battle-tested stud capable of carrying a team. His biggest improvement has come in expanding his range and creating space, and now he’s locked in on tightening his pull-up game, quickening his first step, and improving his reads out of ball screens. Riley plays with confidence, trust in his preparation, and a hunger to keep evolving. As he chases a championship on the Adidas Gold circuit with Hilltoppers Basketball Club 3SGB, he’ll compete in major stops like Omaha and California, ready to torch defenses and leave his mark in front of college coaches.

Scoring his 1,000th point and mentoring underclassmen are moments Riley takes pride in, but it’s his defensive fire that really lights his fuse. He embraces the challenge of locking up the other team’s best player and takes adversity in stride, always focused and trusting the grind. Off the court, he’s just as driven. A standout in the classroom and a devoted worker, Riley brings complete value to a program. He believes in team-first basketball, values leadership, and carries himself with maturity far beyond his years.

I assess that Riley is a highly intelligent, skilled, and efficient lead guard who brings a mix of shooting, leadership, and toughness to any roster. His ability to space the floor, control tempo, and contribute in all areas, scoring, rebounding, and defending, makes him a plug-and-play asset for college coaches who value winning guards.

With continued growth in his athleticism and off-the-dribble game, Riley is evolving into a complete backcourt weapon. He’s a fierce competitor with a calm command, capable of leading a team deep into postseason play. Expect a player who continues to rise through work ethic, consistency, and a game that’s built for success at the next level. Stay tuned for yet another monster season ahead.
