@LDHSfalcon_hoop Mark Richardson (2027) can score from the perimeter in different ways. Off the dribble, catch and shoot, pull-up jumpers.
@JPIIHoops Ja’Meir Hayfort (2027) is going to be one to keep an eye on. Is an interior player with ability to step-out and hit the three.
@raccoonhoops Christian Williams (2028) is a scorer who likes big moments.
@GracePrep_Hoops has plenty of choices on the offensive end. Be aware, this team is going to put up big numbers.
@MarcusBsktBall and @SIU_Basketball signee Luke Susko is a player who is a true leader. Is taking on many roles for the FM Marcus team. A high-IQ player.
@GuyerBasketball has their three top players sidelined, but also have three freshman on varsity to track.
@RyanRaiderHoops as a team are fast/quick, get after their opponent in a hurry and score quickly.
@BN_Hoops has a high-level prospect in Romejo Waits (2027). There simply isn’t anything he can’t do on the court.
@TviewBasketball unsigned senior Johnathan Williams will continue to rise. He’s too valuable of a prospect not to land a scholarship. (Get use to hearing this!)
@LovejoyHoops duo of Alex Cheatham (2027) and @LoynoMbb signee Jackson Kinzig is a one-two punch who will push the accelerator and score with jumpers and off penetration. This is a fun group who will win some big games this year.
@HoopsMesquite has size, athleticism, and they are a team with youth and developing players. Just a matter of time before everything clicks.
