The Phenom PG Nationals was a tremendous event that brought new talent on the biggest stage, and with college coaches roaming around the building, there should have been plenty of players that were put on college programs’ radars. Whether it was D1, D2, D3, or other levels, some players really stood out consistently at the event and should see their stock rise. Check out my list of players that college coaches should be looking at more.
2024 Noah Blocker (WS Christian PG)
Blocker had a tremendous showing at the Phenom PG Nationals, as the 6’2 guard was able to showcase how effective he can be not only as a shot-maker but simply as a true scoring option. Coming in, we knew how strong he was as a player who could get to his spots, rise up, knock down shots from multiple levels, and be a threat from three. But he was filling it up game after game, getting to the rim, and mixing it up really well throughout.
2024 Andrew Turnquist (Huntington Expression Prep)
I continue to believe that this is a prospect that could be a sneaky pick for a program with his blend of size and skill set. This is a forward who can make plays in a variety of ways, using his size well to battle and make plays around the basket but is comfortable enough in stepping out, facing up, and knocking down shots. Turnquist is such an effective scoring option that can create matchup problems with his feel, his skillset, and development.
2024 Bryce Scurlark (TSF National)
It was my first time watching this young man in action, and I believe that this is a prospect that should garner attention from more schools. He is one that checks off boxes for a program; his 6’5 frame, his offensive capabilities, and his versatility. Scurlark can impact the game and play/defend multiple positions on the court, especially at 6’5. But he also plays within the offense, can create his own shot and knock down shots from outside, and also does the little things for his team.
2024 Jase McCullough (DME)
DME has plenty of players to check out but each time I watched them in action, I really enjoyed what McCullough brought to the court. The 6’4 guard brought a mature and confident feel for his team. He played within the offense, showcased his ability to get others involved, was under control and played at a great pace, and just impacted the game without scoring but also scored when needed. He is a steady, high-IQ floor general.
