2024 Ameer Ramadan (SE Gold 2024): Going up against a tough matchup in BSA Surpreme, Ramadan was quite impressive in his showing for his team and put him on the watch list more this weekend. Ramadan was crafty, made plays off the dribble for his teammates, was able to create his own shots, and also did a great job in taking smart shots as well.' Really good feel and playmaker that was able to make plays all over the court.

2024 Champion Hayden (Holley Snow Elite): A familiar face on the Phenom Hoops platform, Hayden continued to show and operate much like he has all season long. He does a tremendous job in making strong plays, attacking and getting downhill, and finding ways to score in the paint and make plays off the dribble.' He finished with 27 points to lead the impressive charge today on Day 1.

2024 Amari Latham (Team PUSH NC): Latham continues to be a player that I believe should be garnering more attention. There is a lot to like and watching him again, it was good for him to show that he has added more to his game.' A versatile 6'5 prospect that has only shown his ability to use his athleticism to help on the boards, run the floor in transition, and finish at the rim, but he also opened more of his eyes in his ability to make plays off the dribble and stretch the court.

2024 Jerquarius Stanback (Mid State Magic): If you haven't seen the 6'6 prospect in action, he is a late bloomer that is coming a long quite well, continues to get better each time we watch him, and could be a nice pick-up for a program. Stanback has really gotten stronger and showing more of his skillset in being a good finisher around the basket. He filled it up with 29 points on Day 1.

2024 Carlos Vazquez (Team Loaded 336): Vazquez is a player that I would be on the lookout for this entire weekend. There is so much to like about his game; he has shown before his ability to operate around the post and be a strong presence on the glass, but he is also an effective weapon outside, creating off the dribble, and playing multiple positions. At 6'5, he can be used in a variety of ways on the floor.

2026 Kenan Dixon (Upward Stars Carolinas Harris): Talk about a young shooter to watch, Dixon really flourishing in showing his confidence release and range on Day 1.' Dixon was knocking down multiple threes all game long from different areas, showing his smooth and fluid shot-making ability.' Did a great job in getting to his spots and be a consistent threat from three.
