2023 Jevon Brown (Upward Stars Pee Dee): Brown was one that we were interested in watching coming in and he quickly came out and showed why he is such a key piece on the floor with his ability to stretch the defense with his perimeter shot. Brown quickly put his range on display, hitting multiple deep threes and initiating the ball in transition.
2023 McCaskill Rivers (CB Hoops): Rivers is one of the more underrated prospects in the state in my opinion. Though an undersized forward, you have to like his ability to impact the boards and be a presence in the paint but also shows tremendous confidence in being effective in stretching the floor with his outside game. Needs to get more looks his way.
2024 Grant Hamilton (CC Elite 2024 White): CC Elite has always been known for their shooters and Hamilton was another one to add to the list for this program. He was on fire from deep, showing a ton of confidence in his fluid, smooth motion, knocking down multiple threes to help lead his team on Day 1 at Nation Ford.
2023 Steven Masini (SBT 804): A new name and a new program rolling through Phenom Hoops, Masini certainly catches your eyes quickly with his strong build and physicality on the court. But he also brings production, using that body to bring a physical presence in the paint, finishing strong, and being active on the boards.
2023 Joshua Scales (NLPB 336): Scales has had a strong summer so far and he is showing that once again, as the combo guard did a nice job in running the show. The strong, athletic guard scored in a variety of ways, as he finished well around in getting to the basket or spotting up from the perimeter. Plays with a great deal of confidence in while on the court.
2024 Armaan Benitez (Team BOND): Team BOND is a team that many should be looking at and the lengthy guard in Benitez helped carry the load to start the day. Using his length well, he displayed a nice ability to find his shot from an array of areas while also finishing at the rim. Really liked his decision-making on his shots and his soft touch. One that can be used at several positions.
2025 Ty Sanders (Carolina Riptide 2024): The 6’2 young prospect was one that grabbed our attention though it was a tough outing overall for the team. Whether it was him showing his shot-making ability from outside, creating for himself and getting to the basket, or finding his teammates, Sanders impacted the game in a variety of ways for his team.
