The Phenom Team Camp has come and gone but here are so many storylines from the event, as we had a great opportunity to check out so many public schools and what they may be rolling in with this upcoming season.  Mallard Creek was one team that caught my eyes, led by their very intriguing guard play that could make some noise so let's dive into what we saw a little more.

When you talk about the Mavericks, you must start with 2024 Langston Boyd who was posting 20+ point performances all weekend long.  With his strong frame, Boyd continued to get downhill, create for himself and get into the paint, score in transition, and give us a little preview of his mid-range game.  He scored effortlessly at times and was incredibly consistent all weekend long.

But alongside him, Mallard Creek will be rolling in with 2023 Bryson Davis, who is coming off a season in which he led the team in scoring at 17 points per game.' When talking about his game in the past, we had this to say: 'One of the key leaders for this team, Davis plays with a strong feel on the floor, bringing a balanced game as a playmaker but also a scorer.' He makes strong plays and finds his teammates well, leads the attack out in transition, finishes well getting downhill with his strong frame, and can be a good defender as well.'

Then you add two young shooters that you will want to watch out for.' 2025 Jalyn Connor, a 6'0 guard who showed last year that he can really light it up and plays with a ton of confidence.' Expect him to only grow even more from last year and this summer, as he should be on your 2025 watch list.' Also with him, you will have a new name in 2026 6'0 Rassell Young, who the coaching staff is excited about especially with his perimeter shot-making as well. 'Boyd, Connor, and Young were all on display in Advance over the weekend, while Davis will be back and shouldn't have any trouble doing what he did last year.' With these four guards, and a few other names that could step up, Mallard Creek s looking to be a very intriguing team to watch heading into the season.
