Deuce Ketner had no hesitation racing in transition with a clear path to the hoop late in Bonner-Prendergast’s win over Malvern Prep on Friday. He soared for a slam, an exclamation point on a day where he and teammate Nelson Lamizana looked to be an unstoppable tandem in certain moments.
Lamizana, a 6-foot-7 junior, stood unguarded as Ketner took the points and dunk for himself, a rarity during a game in which the two Friars seemed to have a knack for finding one another again and again.
It put Bonner up up seven with under a minute remaining, and gave the 6-6 Ketner a highlight-reel moment after Lamizana had two consecutive dunks earlier in the second quarter.
