Next Generation
The next generation of great Max's All Stars is growing up right before our very eyes! Jackie Margulis is a rising future coach who is getting hands-on experience with our men's team. Since joining Max's All Stars as a player/coach intern in Fall 2023, she has compiled a 51-8 (.864) overall record and won five championships. Jackie loves shooting during pre-game warm-ups and started taking basketball lessons at Fastbreak Sports in Spring 2025.
Kaheem Davis' son, KJ Davis, is a superstar in the making! He loves showing off his skills during pre-game warm-ups at our games, but he also plays competitively in all sorts of different leagues/tournaments. KJ also has a little brother, Luka, who has great athletic potential as well!
Jerrell Lewis' son, Adonai (aka AD), has been sharpening his skills with the New Heights basketball program and at Liberty Avenue Middle School where his uncle, Max's All Stars Hall of Famer - Jason Lewis, is a coach as well. AD played in the 7th Annual Max's All Stars Hall of Fame Game at age 13, taking the place of his father, Jerrell, and held his own vs our veteran players.
Adonai Lewis, Dez Herring, Jackie Margulis, Kaheem Davis Jr, and Luka Davis received the first-ever Max's All Stars Youth Basketball Achievement Awards at the 7th Annual Max's All Stars Hall of Fame Game on September 7th, 2025.
