Themus Fulks, 6-1 170, G, 2019, North Davidson HS, Lexington, NC
This young man is putting up big numbers for his North Davidson High School team.The second leading scorer in the North Carolina high school ranks, with a 32.3 points per game average. He’s hitting over 50% from the floor and over 40% from behind the arc. He has good speed and he’s an aggressive defender.
Talton Jones, 6-3 170, G, 2019, Trinity Christian, Fayetteville, NC
This young man is long, lean and fast. He’s also as naturally ambidextrous as any player you’ll ever see. He handles and dishes really well in half court play and he also excels in pushing the ball in transition. He’s a harassing defender, using his quickness and long arms to the max.
So why hasn’t this young man been more intensely recruited? Because, until recently he was, to put it nicely, a non-shooter. However, he has become a much improved shooter. He used to shoot the ball with an unorthodox two-hand push, but seemingly overnight, he is now shooting the ball right-handed and he’s hitting a solid percentage, from the arc even.
George Jones, 6-1 185, G, 2019, Pamlico HS, Bayboro, NC
This young man is a relentless performer, who plays as hard as anyone, on any team. He’s averaging 12 points per game, but also 7.0 rebounds per game, which is an astounding figure for a 6-1 player. George is also averaging almost 2.5 steals per game, with his relentless effort.

I was very impressed with this young point guard, when I saw him in the Hoop Cities Showcase last month at Winston-Salem Prep. He has excellent speed, yet he plays under control and he changes speeds really well. He is a pass-first point guard, with very good court vision. Though he seldom looked to shoot, his form was good and he hit a solid percentage, especially from the free throw line.
