EBYL: Jermi Grant and Arnaud Adala Moto On The Come- Up

HARBOR CITY, Calif.- The final leg of Nike's EYBL kicked off Saturday in Harbor City at the Hangar Athletic Xchange just outside of Los Angeles. With berths to the Peach Jam on the line, the play was intense and physical. Already assured of a spot in the Peach Jam, Team Takeover is looking to finish out the three session EYBL undefeated and they rode the play of Jerami Grant and Arnaud Adala Moto during a hard fought win over Howard Pulley during an afternoon game.

Jerami Grant is comfortable playing the three or four.

Adala Moto and Grant key for Takeover

Facing a scrappy Howard Pulley team during an early afternoon game, Team Takeover looked to move to 11-0 during EYBL play -- and give them 23 straight wins going back to last year's L.A. EYBL and the Peach Jam.

Facing an active zone, Takeover turned to rising senior wing Arnaud Adala Moto during the first half. Athletic and strong, the 6-foot-5 wing came up big as he scored 18 first half points in a variety of ways. He drove to the rim, finished jumpers out to the three point line all while playing active defense. Already ranked #117 in the 2012 Rivals150, the three-star wing is positioning himself for a move up the ranking.

After Adala Moto provided the scoring punch in the first half, it was Jerami Grant who took over offensively in the second half. Often operating out of the high post as a four man, the 6-foot-7 four-star prospect delivered some passes, attacked the rim and finished with explosiveness when he got there while dominating second half scoring and helping Takeover to a tough win.

Afterwards, Grant said that keeping the winning streak going is something that he and his team and coaches have talked about quite a bit.

"The coaches talk about how they won the EYBL last year on national t.v.," Grant told Rivals.com. "We're just out here trying to do the same thing". A wing to some and a faceup four man to others, Grant says that he's happy playing either position.

"I can play either the small forward or four and I don't really care which," said Grant. "I've been working on my game a lot. My jumper, my conditioning and my strength. I'm trying to be as versatile as possible."

According to Grant, he'd like to decide prior to his senior season and he reports offers from Virginia Tech, N.C. State, Clemson, Maryland, Georgetown, Virginia and Syracuse.
