Class of 2025 combo guard Connor Sprattley has been in terrific form for Jefferson Orange Wave this season. After coming off a 71-point game against the Curtis Warriors on Tuesday, Sprattley scored 40 points in the 113-64 win against South Shore on Jan. 11 to reach the 2000 career points mark.
Basketball page Ballislife took to Instagram to post some highlights of Sprattley's 40-point game that got him to his career milestone as he was seen dominating the South Shore defense, running riot in the paint, and converting shots from beyond the arc:
Hoops fans took to the comments section to give their reactions on Connor Sprattley's 40-point performance:
"Definitely first round draft pick," commented a fan.
Another fan compared him to two-time NBA All-Star Stephon Marbury:
"This kid reminds me of Stephon Maurberry when he was at Lincoln. Praying for this kid to go really far man! Love seeing this!!! @sprattleyfam4 🫡."
"So does this mean he can get a D1 offer now? SMH does he need to have a 100 point game? SMH," this fan was shocked about Sprattley not having a college offer.
More fans joined the conversation in the comments section. One fan questioned the defense after Sprattley's scoring outburst:
"Are kids really this good, or is there an issue with defense? Its very rare to celebrate teams locking in on defense."
"why don’t he have no offers by now dropping 100+ in two games is tuff🔥," another fan commented.
"Everytime I open this app bro is having a ridiculous scoring outburst 😂," commented a fan.
Ballislife commented about Sprattley's last two games, "Connor recently had games where he dropped 71 PTS and 50 PTS. After these recent scoring explosions, what do you think Connor could do on the next level?!?"

New York's No. 1 player and Sprattley's teammate Jahda Swann talked about his game and leadership in a video uploaded on YouTube by NYC Basketball History on Tuesday:
"Yeah that's the (Sprattley) captain on the squad so, we got to go whatever he says cause he's the captain, he's the senior but yeah, Conor is great. When I'm not having good days, he's always having good days with scoring, playing defense, talking to us. So yeah, Conor is great." (00:00 - 0:16)
