Player: Karon Boyd
School: Cannon
Class: 2022
Height: 6'5

Sometimes, there are players that are just head-scratchers.' What I mean by that is we find it hard to believe, with what they have shown on the court, why more schools aren’t coming their way.' But credit the ones that have already entered the race, because 2022 6'5 Karon Boyd is going to make one program extremely happy with what he brings to the court.

Boyd has been one of the most consistent players throughout his basketball career, whether it was during travel ball with the Charlotte Hoyas or if it has been during the high school season.' We have watched Boyd produce every time and he has been a standout on so many occasions.' The 6'5 prospect can operate and produce on many levels; whether you need him to battle on the boards and down in the paint, if you need him to defend multiple positions, or if you need him to be a threat from outside' he does it all.' This young man is relentless on the floor, putting his body on the line, playing a physical game, and simply fills up the stat sheet.' Boyd's motor and hustle on the court make him a tough matchup for any opponent and though some may consider him 'undersized' as a forward, the proof is in the numbers.

That is why, with what he has shown to start the season and during the summer, more eyes should be looking his way.

Recruitment:

Boyd continues to produce at a high level, which is why schools like Emory & Henry, UNC-Asheville, Mars Hill, and Houston Baptist all got involved in his recruitment with offers.  When speaking with Boyd, he mentioned not much has changed with his recruitment overall, but a few more programs are expressing interest.

'My recruitment has kind of been the same,' he told Phenom Hoops.  'Recently, Navy has reached out again.  Lincoln Memorial and UNC-Pembroke have been expressing a lot of interest.'

With what he has shown and what he will continue to show this season at Cannon, we wouldn't be surprised more schools coming his way (or they should), as they will be getting a player that simply produces no matter where he is on the floor and has done so consistently.
