Jahmerikah was a star basketball player for Brien McMahon High School. He and his family are longtime members of the Carver community.

We last wrote about Jahmerikah here when he was a senior guard for the Albertus Magnus College men's basketball team when he tallied his 1,000th-career point.

Today’s news is about this former Fearless Falcon signing a professional contract with the Western Massachusetts Zombies in the East Coast Basketball League.

Green-Younger played an integral part in the Falcons' line-up over his four-year tenure with the squad and became the 16th player in program history to join the 1,000th-point club his senior year. He had a breakout season during his second year on campus, averaging a team-leading 15.0 points per game behind seven 20-point performances to earn Third Team All-Conference honors in 2017-18. In that same year, Green-Younger was also named to the Great Northeast Athletic Conference (GNAC) All-Tournament Team.

Green-Younger earned First Team All-Conference honors after closing out his senior campaign with a team-leading 15.4 points-per-game average. He posted 17 double-digit efforts on the year, including a career-high 34 points against Emmanuel. The senior guard knocked down 49.6% of shots from the field, in addition to ranking third on the team in assists per game (1.7).

Currently with the Zombies, Green-Younger has appeared in three games and averaging 14.7 points per game behind a field goal and a three-point percentage of 50%. He has also recorded six rebounds, one assist, and a steal.
