Jacob Harvey 5’11 PG • 2021 • Huffman Hargrave HS / Houston TopGuns 17U
One of the Greater Houston top shooters regardless of class. This is a prospect who will light you up quick, fast, and in a hurry. Contested and uncontested he knocks down shots. He has gotten quicker from his sophomore high school season also. His handle is tight and he also drops dimes. Definitely, a prospect that all college coaches should know about.
Kesean Bennett 6’4 SF • 2020 • Cypress Park HS / Houston TopGuns
Was a defensive force for the TopGuns during the LIVE period. Blocking shots and challenging opponents at the rim. His long arms and good lateral movement makes him a defensive perimeter threat. Guards 3’s and 4’s and is successful even when they are bigger than him. Has bounce to his game offensively and can knock down the occasional trey ball.
Geoffrey Day Jr 5’9 PG • 2020 • Cypress Park HS / Houston Raptors Jackson
He was in the zone for the LIVE period dropping multiple 20 point games. A quick prospect who is a good on-ball defender with quick hands and quick lateral movement. Has decent offensive IQ as well as he dropped multiple dimes as well. He is a pick and roll point guard who looks the pass first. His mid-range game was on full display.
Chris Wiseman 6’4 SF • 2021 • Langham Creek HS / Texas Takeover Kemp 16U
Chris is utilized in the post for his physical presence and good timing on shot-blocking. He can also score the ball where he thrives in the short corner and high post position. Athletic wing with good closeout speed and a long wingspan. I look forward to watching him this High School season to see his progression from last year.
Ryan Nurenberg 5’10 PG • 2020 • W.B. Ray HS / Solid Future Elite (as seen in the picture)
Lights out from volleyball line. Talk about shooting the leather off the ball. This Corpus Christi prospect was thee best shooter all-tourney. He wasn’t just sitting there wide open he was coming down in transition knocking down long balls. Quick Guard that can get to the rim also. Had some key paint touches where he got teammates involved to hit big-time shots. Solid defender as well. This prospect is truly under the radar because of the lack of Coverage in South Texas but coaches need to know about him and keep tabs on him.
