2023 Trenton Jackson (PinPoint Elite)
Every team needs a guy like Trenton. Whenever his team needed anything, he provided offensively or defensively. He got bucket after bucket in the clutch while locking up on the other end, without a doubt the best performance I saw from a player today! He just wanted it more than everybody else on the court
2026 Austin Jackson (Vikings 13u)
The long guard showed out at 8am, displaying a barrage of scoring moves on his way to 22pts in the early morning win. He got to the basket at will and knocked down shots, but what stuck out was how naturally he did it without forcing the issue on anything.
2026 Jadon Green (Garner Road Myatt)
One of a trio of dynamic guards for his squad, Jadon made plays all game long. He was explosive and transition and controlled the pace well. Also had no trouble finishing through contact and showed real poise in the closing minutes to close out the win.
2026 Caleb Williams (Save Sports)
Everybody loves a ballhawk defender. Caleb was everywhere in the morning match, turning defense into offense. His energy not only kept his team in the game but brought his teammates' energy up as well.
2023 Kaleb James (DCBC)
Easily one of the most intriguing prospects of the morning, Kaleb displays phenomenal body control and athleticism at 6'4. His long frame made it easy for him to cut off passing lanes for fastbreak buckets, and he also was able to handle the ball and create for his teammates. His team moved the ball well for him, which included a backdoor lob over top of the zone.
2027 Ferrell Price (CP3BA Select)
SW Guilford Middle has a young guy that can stroke it coming their way, Ferrel was hot all game and finished with 5 threes. And he was huge in his team's 2nd half comeback where he hit 3 threes in a row!
2024 Avon Wilfong (Team Hickory)
Hard not to love Avon's game, he plays so scrappy and hard. Muscled his way through contact around the basket and came up with so many steals that lead to easy transition opportunities for his team. He could've gone scoreless and still been the most valuable player of Team Hickory's afternoon win.
