5’9 Jonah Drye 2025 of Crown Academy has a great feel for the game and an IQ that is beyond his age. He was precise in the way he operated in the picking roll, making the right reads almost each and every time down the floor. He displayed the ability to shoot both off the catch and off the dribble effectively. He also generated easy buckets for himself and his teammates in transition as he pushed the break. As he continues to develop his game, he has the chance to become an elite-level shooter.
5’5 Greg Murray 2025 of CLT1 National Bruce was an absolute floor general for his team as he controlled the pace all game long. Offensively, he uses a combination of his quickness and craftiness to get into the paint and create easy points for both himself and his teammates. His ball control and court vision were on full display all game long. Defensively, he has a knack for finding the ball, coming up with a lot of steals, and forcing turnovers. I am eager to watch how he grows and develops his game
6’6 Chance Morrow 2022 of Charlotte Guards is a freak athlete who uses that athleticism to affect the game in an abundance of ways. Offensively, he uses a blend of size, strength, and athleticism to dominate the paint, drawing contact and getting to the lane at will. He really looks to get out in transition and perform highlight dunks as he did today, catching one off the backboard on a defender. Defensively, he protects the rim, blocking shots into the stands and cleans the boards coming up with a ton of rebounds. As he continues to develop his game offensively, he has the potential to be a problem with the next year or so.
6’6 Colt Langdon 2025 of Save Sports Elite has been by far the most intriguing prospect I’ve seen thus far today. Standing at 6’6 with a great frame, he already stands out on the court, and when you add in his game and he shows why he is an elite young talent. He is super versatile as he displayed the ability to play every position on the floor. He possesses the necessary ball skills that allowed him to slice through the defense and really get to the rim finishing at will. He also showed the ability to spot up and knock down open jumpers. He is also a phenomenal rebounder as he collected boards on both sides of the floor. He is definitely one to watch as he continues to develop. This kid has a true chance of becoming a stud!
6’3 Malek Patterson 2023 of Foothills Elite is another prospect that really caught my attention as I watched him play. He has a great frame to accompany his athleticism, IQ, and physicality. All game long he proceeded to obliterate the defense inside the paint as he scored basket after basket after basket from inside. He has the uncanny ability to position himself to draw contact and live at the free-throw line. Defensively he showed a wide variety of things from blocking shots, getting deflections, and racking up on steals. He finished the game with 28 points (10 free throws made). This is another kid that as he continues to grow has the chance to play at the next level.
