Coach: Justin Dawkins
#9: 5’9 ’25 Nikayle Hodge (Westminster Catawba)
Starting off, we look at a player who displayed poise and confidence when running the team, Nikayle Hodge. He’s a smart, scrappy point guard prospect with a quality combination of quickness, scoring prowess, and playmaking instincts. Hodge possesses a crafty handle and sharp penetration sense, which allows him to consistently touch the paint and make proper reads with the ball in his hands. He finishes well for his size and knocks down jumpers at a reliable percentage from the perimeter. Hodge provides great energy defensively and understands how to make his presence felt at the point of attack. He also rebounds well for his size and pushes the break well in transition. Next in his development process is working to get stronger, as it would make him a more imposing player. Coach Dawkins on Hodge: “Nikayle is a great floor general who can get downhill and to the basket. He’s unselfish, coachable, and plays hard. Loved his attitude.” Hodge did a lot of things well during camp and should be poised for a quality senior season at Westminster Catawba.
#10: 5’9 ’26 Jyssiah Foster (Greer)
Next, we look at a player who offered a steady, well-rounded presence on both ends of the floor, Jyssiah Foster. He’s a smart, unselfish guard prospect with a high motor and understanding of how to effectively produce within the flow of the action. Foster is arguably at his best when spotting up along the perimeter and knocking down jumpers but also displayed a useful penetration sense. He moves well without the ball, makes the extra pass, and battles for extra possessions whenever possible. Foster contains his assignment well defensively and rebounds nicely for his size/position. Next in his development process is working on the use of his off-hand, as it would make him a more complete player. Coach Dawkins on Foster: “Jyssiah is a great shooter who knows how to space the defense and attack closeouts when necessary. Good teammate who accepts coaching and makes plays on both sides of the ball.” Foster enjoyed a quality showing at camp and should be a key piece for Greer during his upcoming junior season.
#25: 6’0 ’25 Reggie Mack II (Ridge View)
Moving forward, we look at a player who simply knows how to dictate the action in a smart, unselfish manner, Reggie Mack II. He’s a steady, reliable point guard prospect who prioritizes setting up others, defending the point of attack, and scoring with efficiency. Mack plays a very clean, straightforward game with the right level of balance between scoring and playmaking. He breaks down defenders, touches the paint at a quality rate, and makes correct decisions with the ball in his hands. Mack finishes well through contact and knocks down jumpers at a solid rate. He’s a rugged defender with the necessary quickness and instincts to mirror opponents and force turnovers. Next in his development process is working on the use of his off-hand, as it would make him a more complete player. Coach Dawkins on Mack: “Reggie is a good floor general who knows how to create and get everyone involved. Good defender and unselfish passer.” Mack did a lot of things well during camp and should be an x-factor for Ridge View this season.
#29: 6’1 ’25 Logan Parker (Fort Mill)
Continuing forward, we look at a player who made a lasting impression with his defense and perimeter shooting, Logan Parker. He’s a smart, steady guard prospect who offers a very low-maintenance identity on both ends of the floor. Parker can handle the ball, attack closeouts, and finish or set up others. However, he’s arguably at his best when moving as a cutter and exploiting open seams within the defense. Parker consistently causes problems for opponents as a spot-up threat, but can also do more as needed. On the other end, he stands out as a quality defender and excellent rebounder. Parker contains his assignment well and does a great job of getting to his spots in transition. Next in his development process is working on the use of his off-hand, as it would make him a more complete player. Coach Dawkins on Parker: “Logan is a great shooter with a solid frame and understanding of how to make an impact within the team structure. Good teammate.” Parker made his presence felt throughout camp and should be poised for a very productive senior season at Fort Mill.
#34: 6’3 ’25 Nathaniel Hughes IV (Brookland Cayce)
Next, we look at a player who quietly stood out as one of the most productive campers on display, Nathaniel Hughes IV. He’s a wiry, unselfish guard prospect with a great combination of size, motor, and overall polish. Hughes is comfortable playing without the ball and producing as a spot-up threat or creating his own shot off the bounce. He’s a capable playmaker with solid vision and the ability to make decisions with the ball in his hands. That being said, Hughes is capable of mixing it up from all levels. He’s a useful penetrator, pull-up shooter, and threat from beyond the arc. He defends with great energy and rebounds at a quality rate for his size/position. Next in his development process is working to get stronger, as it would make him a more imposing player. Coach Dawkins on Hughes: “Nathaniel is a great shooter with a high motor and unselfish approach to the game. Good teammate. Accepts coaching well.” Hughes proved to be an asset during camp and should be due for a strong senior season at Brookland Cayce.
#37: 6’2 ’25 Xavier Johnson (Crestwood)
Moving forward, we look at a player who really shined through his ability to do the little things, Xavier Johnson. He’s a long, wiry guard prospect with a phenomenal motor and team-oriented approach to the game. Johnson displayed a polished scoring arsenal and overall skillset, but clearly prioritizes doing whatever possible to provide his team with an edge. He found ways to impact all facets of the game. Johnson excelled at attacking the basket and finishing, but also knocked down jumpers and set up others as needed. He’s a rugged defender and strong rebounder who routinely outworks opponents for extra possessions. Next in his development process is working on the use of his off-hand, as it would make him a more reliable creator. Coach Dawkins on Johnson: “Xavier is a great team player who knows how to do the small things. He works hard on the court and makes hustle plays on a regular basis. Good teammate.” Johnson did a lot of things well during camp and should be a key piece for Crestwood this season.
#45: 6’2 ’26 Jaden Hayden-Barber (York Prep)
Continuing forward, we look at a player who made a lasting impression through his rugged mentality and defensive prowess, Jaden Hayden-Barber. He’s a strong, athletic wing prospect who offers a physically imposing presence on both ends of the floor. Hayden-Barber is arguably at his best when getting downhill, attacking the basket and finishing, but is also capable of spacing the floor and setting up others. He’s a capable initiator who handles and passes the ball well. On the defensive end, Hayden-Barber absolutely wreaks havoc. His blend of strength, quickness, and toughness allow him to reliably defend multiple positions and consistently outwork bigger opponents for rebounds. Next in his development process is working on the use of his off-hand, as it would make him a more complete player. Coach Dawkins on Hayden-Barber: “Jaden is a great defensive player who offers a high motor and unselfish approach to the game. He plays well without the ball and fights hard on both ends of the floor.” Hayden-Barber made his presence felt during camp and should be a focal point for York Prep over these next few seasons.
#53: 6’3 ’26 Isaiah Worley (Legion Collegiate)
Next, we look at a player who showcased the ability to thrive with or without the ball in his hands, Isaiah Worley. He’s a long, skilled guard prospect with an excellent combination of IQ, polish, and instincts. Worley is a reliable three-level scorer who can create for himself or others and apply constant pressure based on what the defense is giving him. He moves very well without the ball to find open seams and capitalize as a spot-up threat. Worley knocks down jumpers at a high clip, but also looks to make the extra pass and attack closeouts as needed. Defensively, he utilizes his length and motor to contain his assignment and force turnovers. Next in his development process is working to get stronger, as it would make him even more difficult for opponents to contain. Coach Dawkins on Worley: “Isaiah is a great shooter who is always moving without the ball. Great teammate who plays hard and accepts coaching.” Worley highlighted a lot of intrigue during camp and will be a prospect to watch closely over these next few seasons.
#72: 6’6 ’27 Joshua Leonard (Wilson)
Moving forward, we look at a player who was quite clearly the most impressive camper in attendance, Joshua Leonard. He’s a smart, skilled, athletic wing prospect with legitimately no weaknesses in his identity. Leonard is an all-around player who can dominate a game in several ways. He’s able to apply nonstop scoring pressure from all levels, yet understands how to elevate his teammates and create opportunities for others. Leonard leads with incredible poise and maturity. He’s a terrific passer who handles the ball effectively and looks to make the right play whenever possible. Leonard is tough, engaged, and often the most intelligent player in every gym he enters. He’s able to defend multiple positions, rebound at a high rate, and constantly make plays in transition. Next in his development process is simply working to maintain his current trajectory. Coach Dawkins on Leonard: “Joshua is a great leader who can score whenever he wants to. Capable of doing everything on the court. Sets the tone on both ends of the floor.” Leonard has all the makings of a special talent and will be a prospect to monitor closely over the foreseeable future.
#78: 6’8 ’25 Teon Tindal (Crestwood)
Finishing up, we look at a player who understands how to anchor the paint on both ends of the floor, Teon Tindal. He’s a long, mobile post prospect with a quality understanding of how to produce within the flow of the action. Tindal is a reliable finisher and capable midrange shooter who mixes it up well offensively. He runs the floor and applies pressure around the basket, but doesn’t necessarily need touches to make an impact. Tindal moves very well without the ball to find open space and capitalize. That being said, a lot of his value comes from being able to alter shots defensively and control the glass as a rebounder. Tindal understands how to play to his strengths on the court. Next in his development process is working on getting quicker, as it would make him a better defender when switching onto smaller opponents. Coach Dawkins on Tindal: “Teon is a solid big man. He battles inside the paint and rebounds the ball very well. Great teammate who plays hard and accepts coaching.” Tindal made a quality impact during camp and should be poised for a strong senior season at Crestwood.
