“My sons were participants of the MBP Basketball program under the leadership and coaching of Coach Desmond Murdock for several years. The disciplines, coaching and tutelage that they received in this program were stellar and nothing short of exemplary. They not only learned about the game of basketball and enjoyed it as both a competitive and recreational sport, but most importantly, they acquired life skills that facilitated their growth into intelligent, productive, honorable men of valor. My oldest son is currently a second year law student at University of Alabama, having graduated magna cum laude with his Bachelor of Science in Business and with a Masters in Tax Accounting from same institution. My youngest son is currently a first year medical student at Harvard Medical School having graduated summa cum laude from Rutgers University with a Bachelor of Arts in Biology. Both 21 and 23 years old and Coach is still a part of their lives attending function after function. He meant it when he said the players become a part of the MBP family. I want to thank him for being a part of our family throughout the years. The Family. Anthony, Yvette Anthony II and Solomon"

What Parents & Players Are Saying

"MBP is hands down one of the best basketball programs in Morris County. Our older son has been training with MBP for several years, and the transformation has been remarkable—he went from a novice to a confident player on his school team. Inspired by his journey, our younger son joined MBP two seasons ago and is already thriving.

The coaches at MBP are not only highly skilled but also deeply committed to nurturing each child’s potential. They instill valuable life lessons in team trust, self-confidence, and perseverance. Every session is a blend of discipline, teamwork, and a genuine love for the game.

What sets MBP apart is the coaching style—thorough, methodical, and incredibly motivating. They help good players become great and ensure beginners build a strong foundation. The workouts and scrimmages are fun, intense, and fast-paced, which keeps the kids engaged and excited to come back. It’s more than just basketball—it’s a place where kids grow as athletes and individuals.

We’re truly grateful to MBP for the positive impact they’ve had on our children’s development. Highly recommended!

Thank you MBP!"

"My son has been a member on MPB for the past four years. He started off slow, confused and lacked game time confidence. That didn’t deter his coaches from taking a chance on him! They have and continue to guide him and mold him into the player he is today. They have fostered team spirit, strong work ethic, a go getter mentality, and a level of confidence that I haven’t seen in my son before. Coaches Justin, Warren and Des are passionate about their athletes and their growth. Unlike, other teams, it isn’t a money grab! They truly care about your kids and their growth. I don’t regret joining MPB! We are a family!"
