Dyckman Basketball has officially announced our 2026 Boys’ High School Division All-Tournament Teams! Headlined by our Most Valuable Player, Larry Jenkins, here’s a look at the First Team:
Javion Tyndale (Team Watson)
The Canadian guard came Uptown this summer and absolutely scorched the competition. He averaged 24.5 PPG in two victories for Team Watson, laying the foundation for their undefeated regular season. The 4-star recruit will play his senior year at Montverde Academy and is actually announcing his college decision today!
Jourdan “J Mac” Archevald (Jungle Athletics)
Archevald—aka “The Puerto Rican Prince”—had a stellar summer at Dyckman Park. Operating as the lead guard, he averaged 14.6 PPG while teaming up with Matthew Santiago to anchor the best backcourt in the High School Division, guiding Jungle Athletics to their first-ever Championship Game appearance. He was still able to finish the job in our 16U division, though, capturing the title with Faith & Hope alongside several of his Archbishop Stepinac teammates.
Keishaun White (Rim Rockers)
The 2029 wing burst onto the scene and showed out on the Red Carpet. He averaged 23.3 PPG across Rim Rockers’ three regular-season games, including a thriller where he hit a game-tying three in the final moments before sealing the victory at the line. The three-level scorer will suit up for St. Francis Prep this upcoming season.
Matthew Santiago (Jungle Athletics)
Santiago served as the primary scoring guard in that lethal Jungle Athletics backcourt, averaging 15.2 PPG on the season—highlighted by electric outings of 21, 18, and 18 points over his final three regular-season appearances. The sharpshooter enters his junior season at Eagle Academy Bronx, the reigning PSAL 4A City Champions.
On the Second Team, we have:
Kamari Whyte (Road to Riches)
The lone representative from the two-time champion Road to Riches squad, Whyte averaged 19.0 PPG in his two appearances. Fresh off his summer commitment to Georgia Tech, Whyte will finish his high school career at Blair Academy this upcoming season.
Zaire “Zaza” Johnson (The Program)
The lefty guard was an absolute bucket, averaging 16.7 PPG across four contests. Sharing the backcourt with his high school teammate and floor general, Todd Arrington, allowed Johnson to unleash his full scoring punch. The Harlem native enters his senior season at St. Raymond’s High School for Boys.
Massa Toure (Team Tracey)
Team Tracey consistently brings top-tier talent out of Connecticut, and this summer was no different as he introduced us to Massa Toure. The younger brother of Arkansas freshman Abdou Toure, Massa put his sky-high potential on full display, averaging 14.3 PPG in three contests. The 2029 combo guard will play his sophomore season at Notre Dame West Haven.
Julian Harris (Unsung Yutes)
Harris opened our High School season with a bang, dropping 24 points in the opener for Unsung Yutes. “5-Star Ju,” as the kids call him, provided consistent firepower all summer, averaging 13.3 PPG. He will continue his student-athlete journey at Broome Street Academy.
Matthew Kennedy (NJ Hoop Recruit)
After an 0-2 start to the season, NJ Hoop Recruit knew they needed reinforcement fast. Enter Matthew Kennedy, who completely turned their season around by filling up the stat sheet. The rising senior at Saint Mary Rutherford averaged 18.3 PPG the rest of the way to anchor their resurgence.
We're proud to spotlight a partner doing real work in youth basketball. Back 2 Basics Academy is giving kids a second chance to play the game they love — no high price tag attached.
Let the debates begin! Who did we get right, and who did we miss? If you think someone was snubbed, try convincing the selection committee—aka Kojo and myself, who personally watched every single game from start to finish differently.
The Dyckman Dispatch is officially coming to a close for the summer. Stay tuned for my final address this Friday!
