Rayshon Harrison Rayshon Harrison 6'4" | CG Legacy Early College | 2020 State SC – Legacy Early College – Team South Carolina Black (pictured on front)
Harrison 6’4 was sensational all weekend long for his squad. Harrison has really put on some good muscle to his frame since transferring back in early January 2019 from Christ Church over to Legacy Early College. Harrison has gotten stronger and really finished well at the basket. Harrison exploded by defenders at times with the ball.

Burton has a knack to score the ball. Burton 6’2 averaged 23.7 ppg in high school and currently has 1,060 career points entering his senior season. Burton was able to finish at the rim with his left-hand on several occasions Burton seems to be improving on his perimeter game the more and more we see him play.

John Haddock Rogers John Haddock Rogers 6'7" | SF TL Hanna | 2020 State SC – TL Hanna HS – Team South Carolina Black

Haddock Rogers has the ability to play face-up from 15-17 feet on the floor. Haddock Rogers averaged 9.5 ppg and 6.6 rebounds this past season.

Zyan Gilmore Zyan Gilmore 5'11" | PG Clarendon Hall | 2020 State SC – Clarendon Hall (Summerton) – Team South Carolina Red
Gilmore is a fun player to watch despite being under 6’0. Gilmore has the heart of a lion on the floor and leaves it all out there when playing. Gilmore helped his high school team to a SCISA Class 1A State Championship and a (29-0) season. Gilmore isn’t afraid to pull=up from 25 feet without hesitation at times or drive the ball to the rack. Gilmore averaged 20.1 ppg, 8.1 rebounds, 6.3 steals and 6.0 assists this past season for the Saints.

Traveon Davis Traveon Davis 6'5" | SG Clarendon Hall | 2020 State SC – Clarendon Hall (Summerton) – Team South Carolina Red
Davis 6’4 has all the tools to be a player at the next level. Davis can really stroke the ball from distance along with passing the ball like a point guard at times. Davis needs to figure out how to play hard at all times when playing. Davis came over to Clarendon Hall from nearby Lake Marion HS last summer. Davis averaged 20.3 ppg this past season while shooting 52% (80-153) from three point range.

Leonard Williams Leonard Williams 6'2" | SF Laurens | 2020 State SC – Laurens HS – Team South Carolina Red
Williams is the absolute glue guy on the floor. Williams a left-handed forward has a bit of a old- school type game. Williams converted while attacking the basket or knocking down a perimeter jumper. Williams handles the ball up the floor at times. Williams isn’t afraid to dive on the floor for loose balls and is very vocal with teammates in communication.
[player_tooltip player_id="751292" first="Nijheer" last="Holmes"]
Nijheer Holmes Nijheer Holmes 6'7" | PF Greenville | 2020 State SC – Fountain Inn Christian – Team South Carolina Red
Holmes 6’7 is a new name to bring to the table from the Upstate. Holmes attends a very small school in Fountain Inn Christian. Holmes started off his high school career at Hillcrest HS. Holmes has great footwork and finishes everything around the basket. Holmes keeps the ball up high and runs the floor very well. Holmes was able to swat away a few balls on the defensive end. Holmes really needs to just keep playing more and more this spring and summer.
Daniel Mayfield
Daniel Mayfield – Stephens County HS (Toccoa, GA) – Carolina Hawks
Mayfield 6’6 is a long and slender stretch four man. Mayfield likes to play in the high post and has a good touch out to 16-18 feet on the floor.
