Charlotte Country Day looking to continue its winning ways with new names
Head Coach David Carrier has proven to be one of the top coaches in the state of North Carolina, both on and off the court. When talking to him, you can truly see his passion for the game and for his players, as he has been able to help the Buccaneers build upon their program. Last year, Charlotte Country Day had a very strong season in which they racked up 20 wins and certainly wasn’t a...

POB’s Eye Catchers: Day 2 at Phenom MDC (Part 3)
2026 Chris Gomez (CP3 Select): A young prospect that has intrigue with his game, Gomez has good early size, is a confident scorer, and has a strong feel/understanding of the game. He is a smooth-operating prospect that makes plays off the bounce, a smooth finisher in getting to the basket, and is active all over the court. Gomez is a name that I would jot down and look at more down the road....

POB’s Eye Catchers from Day 2 at the George Lynch Invitational
2023 Noah Van Bibber (Concord Academy): Bibber can really be a critical piece for his team because when he is clicking and stretching the defense with his shot-making ability, Concord Academy has plenty of weapons to be effective. He did that today, finding the open spots in the defense, rising up, and knocking key shots with his jumper. When he is on along with everyone else, this team is...

North Carolina Top 80 Camp Evaluations: Team 8
Team 8 Coach: Chase Geter #8: 5’11 ’23 Micah Jones (Holly Springs) Starting things off, we look at a player who simply knows how to run a team and set the tone on both ends of the floor, Micah Jones. He’s a smart, quick point guard prospect with sharp vision and the ability to touch the paint at will. Jones finishes well for his size, but typically looks to create opportunities for others....

POB’s Eye Catchers from Phenom Queen City (Part 1)
2024 Jacob Brandly (Combine Academy): Brandly continues to play at a high level for his team, as he showed his ability to score in a variety of ways. He filled it up all throughout the event, knocking down shots, showing his pull-up game, a little of his inside feel, and helping on the boards. His blend of IQ and ability to knock down shots was strong all day long. 2024 Zyan Hager...

POB’s Eye Catchers from Day 1 at Phenom March Madness (Part 1)
2023 DJ Jackson (NC Rise Dawkins): Jackson helped lead the charge for his team, as he was able to push the ball out in transition well, find his spots and knock down open jumpers from multiple levels on the floor. Smooth, confident release, scoring the ball well on Day 1 of the Phenom March Madness. 2022 Ian Blue (Sandhills 17u): Fresh off earning an offer from Coker, Blue came out strong on Day...

POB’s Eye Catchers from Day 1 at Phenom November Classic
2022 Quante Berry (Winston Salem Christian): Really liked what I saw out of the Providence commit. He wasn’t filling up the stat sheet as far as scoring but Berry was making play after play on the floor to help his team. On several occasions, he was able to create with the dribble and eventually set up/ find his teammates for easy baskets. But he also got out and took advantage...

Phenom All-American Camp Evaluations: Team 2
Team 2 Coach: Kyree Bethel #3: 5’4 ’25 Jalen Mills (Hope Mills) Starting things off, we look at a player that understands how to consistently make an impact through his toughness and nonstop motor, Jalen Mills. He’s a young, unselfish, team-first guard prospect who doesn’t necessarily require the ball in order to make his presence felt. Mills is a capable ball-handler and scorer, but...

5’11 ’25 Eli Ellis (TLBA) There are a lot of varying opinions about Ellis, but there is absolutely no debating his high-level consistency and production—especially against his own age group. He’s already developed a unique toughness through being battle-tested at the high school level. Ellis stands out as a tremendous leader for this group, both as their primary scorer and playmaker, and simply...
