John Campbell – 6’5 – F – NC Spartans – 2024
The first thing I noticed about John this weekend was his motor. He was all out and did not come to waste time this weekend. The slashing wing runs the floor very well, had a solid scoring output, got his hands on a few rebounds, and had good defensive court awareness.
Malachi Simpson – 6’5 – G/F- WNC Elite – 2025
Malachi is a long-wiry wing with elite athleticism. Quick first step in a half-court set, and explosive when he fills the lane. Attacks the rim with serious intentions. He has a good handle, is hard to stay in front of, can score, and has great court vision when finding teammates.
Caden Ryker – 6’0 – PG – NC Spartans – 2026
Caden is a floor general. Each time I took time to watch him, he was making the right play. Probing the court getting where he wanted to, distributing the ball where it needed to be; keeping his teammates involved. In addition to the aforementioned, he also led his team in scoring. Showed the total package from the point guard position.
Keyonee “KJ” Terry – 6’4 – PG/F – Gentz – 2027
Keyonee played more of a point/forward position over the weekend. He handled most of the point guard duties, but in a half-court set, he showed what he could do from the wing. Moving without the ball, taking his man off the dribble, good passer, and taking the occasional 3-pointer efficiently. Crashed the boards on the offensive and defensive end and blocked several shots on defense. Very high ceiling.
Christian Coleman – 6’2 – G – The Skillz Factory – 2027
Christian is tough. He can score from mid-range, is crafty off the dribble in taking the ball to the basket, in transition, and can shoot it with range. Has good offensive and defensive court awareness and is hard to stop when he gets a head of steam in transition.
