At the beginning of each new year, Phenom Hoops works to assemble a series of articles centered around unsigned senior prospects. Last season, hundreds of players from North Carolina went on to play at the Division I, II, III or NAIA levels, and that number looks likely to continue increasing with the current senior class. Typically, we take a closer look at guys who are overlooked and underrated, and today’s edition will highlight Logan Threatt of Carmel Christian.
We’ve talked about Threatt a ton, including when we stated, “While Benham is an obvious leader, Threatt is clearly a prospect that should have more action within his recruitment. He’s an extremely crafty, polished, savvy offensive force with the ability to create and score in a variety of different ways. Threatt shoots the ball at a high level, mixes up his approach with regularity, and is capable of setting up others. He’s a strong competitor defensively and does an impressive job of maintaining his overall consistency throughout the flow of the game. Threatt should emerge as a priority for Division I coaches sooner than later.” Later, we wrote, “After the camp, Threatt only seemed to get better as the high school season began and carried onward. He’s able to run an offense, get others involved, or assert himself as a lethal scoring option from all three levels. Threatt shows leadership in various different ways, especially through emotion and by example. While many know him for his ability to score, Threatt actually ranks fifth in North Carolina for assists per game. He’s crafty with size, strength, and the ability to expand his production as needed. Threatt is already quite impressive, but expect him to become even better and see an uptick in his recruitment sooner than later.”
Since then, Threatt has only further solidified his case as a scholarship-worthy prospect while being a primary option for a noteworthy team in Carmel Christian. Given their balance and how many opponents they’ve dominated, it can be challenging to get a full viewing of the dynamic guard prospect. However, Threatt possesses a phenomenal blend of size, strength, and shot-creation instincts along the perimeter. He can initiate the offense or play alongside a primary ball-handler with relative ease. Threatt is a very capable passer but often looks to make his presence felt through applying scoring pressure from all levels. He makes quality decisions with the ball in his hands, and displays feel on both ends of the floor. His recruitment has been a mixed bag, but he should only continue to see schools get involved over the coming months.
