Justice Ajogbor – Christ School – Power Forward/Center
Ajogbor showed why he’s such a highly-rated prospect with his mobility, length and skills around the rim on both ends. He’s got a strong frame for his size at 6-foot-9, 250 pounds and is due to terrorize the Ivy League at Harvard at the next level.
Zachary Bessette – Central Cabarrus – Guard
Bessette filled it up at the Jamboree as his team’s primary scorer and showed off as a threat off the dribble. He does well to get to the rim and the free throw line with his size at 6-foot-4. He’ll be one to watch at Central Cabarrus.
James Maguek – Calvary Day – Power Forward/Center
Maguek is a new face in the Calvary Day rotation and what stood out most was his 7-foot height and motor. He was rocking a knee brace but he showed great movement running the floor and protecting the paint. He had a number of big blocks and rebounds that made folks take notice. He’ll be a senior prospect to keep track of.
Garret Hien – Concord First Assembly – Forward
Hien was a mismatch problem all day long for Concord First Assembly. He’s a versatile prospect at 6-foot-9 that can score on all three levels and finish above the rim. Furman is getting quite the prospect after this season.
Cheick Traore – Concord First Assembly – Power Forward/Center
Traore is a traditional big man prospect that does it all in the paint. On offense, he was a burden to defend in the post. On defense, he flew around blocking shots and securing rebounds. Youngstown State is another program getting quite the prospect at the next level.
Aymeric Toussaint – Freedom Christian – Power Forward/Center
Touissant is a versatile big man to watch at 6-foot-10 at Freedom Christian. He’s a prospect that showed off quite the abilities as a rim runner, paint protector and rebounder. He’s got nice length and athleticism on both ends and showed flashes as an inside-out threat.
Whit Trevey – Greensboro Day – Guard
Trevey is a role player for Greensboro Day that gets after it on both ends. He can knock down the 3-ball with efficiency and defends with aggression. He’s a prospect that should do well at the next level with the right fit.
Kalib Matthews – Henderson Collegiate – Guard
Matthews is an instant offense guy that’s going to be quite the steal for Queens University. He can score from anywhere on the floor and should pose as a solid threat at the 1A level at Henderson Collegiate.
Dejuante “Tay” Williams – Liberty Heights – Wing/Forward
Williams is an impressive versatile prospect that can play multiple positions on the floor. At 6-foot-8, he possesses length and guard skills that allow him to operate on the wing and in the post. He’s a guy that rebounds and gets out on the break looking to play above the rim. He’s one of a few prospects on the Liberty Heights roster.
Kahari Rogers – Liberty Heights – Guard/Wing
Rogers is a 6-foot-6 wing with a physically imposing frame and quite the versatile skillset. He can knock it down with range from behind the arc and finish above the rim. He’s a sleeper prospect college coaches should track on this roster. North Carolina A&T and Hofstra have offered already.
Kamryn Edwards – Liberty Heights – Guard
Edwards is slowly emerging as a threat from all three levels. He showed off his ability to get hot from the perimeter and get to the rim off the dribble. He’s another guard due for a strong season at Liberty Heights.
