Eli Scarlett, 2021, 511, Watertown High School. What can’t Elliot do? He is serious about leaving everything on the floor. His offensive and defensive efficiency is impressive. Elliot has the ability to attack the rim, rebound and defend.While he looks to score, he isn’t the “rah rah” type, but he brings out the best in his teammates. Elliot plays with confidence and he is a valuable contributor.
Dawson Wilkins, 2020, 6’1 PG at Woodland. Wilkins vision on the court to assist others makes him a dominate force on the floor. His hustling contributes to scoring opportunities for his teammates. He’s a brilliant passer who has the ability to compile a lot of assists. Wilkins sees passes that others don’t and he has the nerve to make passes that others wouldn’t. He shows great enthusiasm on both ends of the floor.
Nick Zabetakis, 2020, 5’9 PG at West Forsyth. He established himself as a hustler the moment the game tipped off. As a point guard he has a natural ability to see the floor. His intensity on the hardwood makes him the main attraction. He plays with the same aggression rather the ball is in his hands or he’s playing defense. Zebetakis puts in effort to get to the basket, dish to his teammates and control the flow of offense.
