No. 14 Jaylen Curry Jaylen Curry 6'1" | PG Calvary Christian | 2023 State #109 Nation FL – Vance
Curry is another prospect in the Vance backcourt with tons of ability in his wheelhouse, especially as a slasher. He put up 11.4 ppg, 5.0 apg, 2.7 rpg and 2.6 spg for the Cougars as a freshman. As their top playmaker, he’s due to make waves as quite the combo guard in the coming years.
No. 16 Trey Horton Trey Horton 6'4" | SG Hough | 2023 State NC – Davidson Day
Horton was a member of the NCISAA 2A State Championship squad that went 30-1 on the season at Davidson Day. With Jackson Threadgill Jackson Threadgill 6'5" | SG Davidson Day | 2020 State NC on the way out, it opens the door for Horton to have a breakout type season in Year 2.
No. 19 Keenan Wilkins Keenan Wilkins 5'11" | PG Christ School | 2024 State NC – Hendersonville
Wilkins is a 5-foot-9 guard that plays bigger than his size with the ball in his hands. He was a top player in the rotation alongside Noah Rogers Noah Rogers 6'4" | PF Rolesville | 2023 State NC Jr., putting up 17.9 ppg, 2.9 spg, 2.6 rpg and 1.7 spg in his first year on varsity. Look for his stock to grow after making a run in the 2A State Playoffs.
No. 22 Joshua Bullock Joshua Bullock 6'0" | PG Northside Christian Academy | 2024 State NC – Northern Nash
Bullock played sparingly this season on varsity, producing 7.3 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.9 steals and 1.6 assists per game. He’s a shifty playmaker with the ability to take over a game. He’ll be a breakout prospect to watch in 2020-21 after contributing in 2019-20.
No. 28 Tristin Harkins Tristin Harkins 6'2" | PG Pine Forest | 2022 State NC – Pine Forest
Harkins is a combo guard with nice size at 6-foot-3. He’s got the confidence to put the ball on the floor and finish strong through traffic or dial it up from 3-point range. He’ll be one to watch alongside Isaiah Washington Isaiah Washington 6'5" | SG Winston-Salem Christian | 2024 State NC .
No. 30 Kobe George Kobe George 6'3" | PG Winston-Salem Christian | 2023 #213 Nation NC – Ben L. Smith
George played behind some experienced guards in 2019-20 and after learning a ton from them, he’s due to break out in the Golden Eagles backcourt as a sophomore. He’ll be a combo guard prospect to watch at 6-foot-3 that can get it done on both ends.
