The NC Red Storm program has been around for a good amount of time and has sent quite a few players on to the next level. They are based out of the Raleigh area and always feature some of the top players that are no on sneaker circuits and players that play with a high amount of toughness. We will take a look at their roster and even a closer look at a few players that college coaches should keep a very close eye on over the next few weeks.
Senior 5’7 PG DJ Thomas: Is one of the toughest players under 6 feet that you will come across, he plays the game at a high speed but always remains poised and under control. On the offensive end he blows by his man with ease, and on the defensive end he is constantly applying pressure and coming up with steals.
Junior 6’0 Combo Ta’Shaud Alexander:Is a player that JUCO and NAIA programs should keep an eye on as he is player that could go to either level although he has some potential to play at the D2 level as well.
Junior 6’1 PG Taylor Bell: He averaged just under 20 points during the high school season and is out to prove to college coaches that he is a scholarship worthy player. Does a nice job of keeping defenders off balance as he can score from all levels and has a pretty solid handle.
Senior 6’2 Combo Jaylan Neal: Watching his growth over the past few years has been pretty impressive, he showed up and showed out at the recent ENC FAB 40 Camp and turned the heads of college coaches. He has decent size for a D2 level guard, you can play him on or off the ball due to his ability to score but also find teammates. His athletic ability was a bit of a surprise to us as we saw him make quite a few plays above the rim on both ends of the floor.
Senior 6’3 wing Keante Bradley: Another player that has flown under the radar as far as recruitment goes, he has the ability to score the ball at a high level and plays the game with confidence. He has a frame that looks like he spends a good amount of time in the weightroom and it allows him to defend multiple position as well as grabbing a good amount of rebounds.
Junior 6’4 wing Parker Swisher: He didn’t see a ton of time due to the fact that Millbrook was such a loaded team but he can play on the next level without a doubt. Good size for a wing/forward at a smaller school, he can knock down he trey ball and last but not least he is a great student that gets it done in the classroom.
Junior 6’4 wing Jackeem Herbin: A LM type of talent, he has shown his ability to score the ball and is one of the better rebounding guards that you will come across. He does a nice job of keeping his man in front of him and not reaching too often, good talent and upside in this prospect.
Junior 6’5 PF Holden Buchanan: A player that D2/D3 programs should keep an eye on, we know that programs are always looking for size and he’s a legit 6’5. Also is a great student as he performs well in the classroom, which is always a positive for college coaches looking for talent.
Junior 6’10 Stretch 4 Jonas Aidoo: One of the players on the team with a very high ceiling and the potential to be a special prospect, he has legit height and a 7’4 wingspan to go with it. He’s one of the younger players in his class as he is only 16years old and still growing.
