The Phenom Middle School Elite Camp was an incredible overall event and a chance for us at Phenom Hoops to get a glimpse of the future here around the region. We want to continue to excitement and coverage, as we will be highlighting several players along with all evaluations being posted here on the Phenom Hoops website.
We will be having our eyes up in Virginia for our next prospect, as 2029 5’8 James “JD” Williamson was one that showed us flashes and potential with his game at the Middle School Elite Camp. Williamson was able to find success in a variety of areas when watching him, whether it was showcasing his strong handles, penetrating and attacking the defense, and being able to not only make plays for himself off the bounce but also for others. He scored effectively at times on drives but also got to his spots from the perimeter, knocking down shots from outside. Williamson displayed a strong understanding and feel for the game at his age, which makes us eager to see how he continues to work and develop his overall game. However, he was a player that earned our attention for down the road.
What Was Said:
“2029 James Williamson (Glenvar MS) has an advanced feel for the game. Strong handles, showing the ability make plays off the bounce, but also comfortable in a variety of other areas.”
