The 6'5" guard shined as a freshman averaging 16.2 PPG and 9.2 RPG, netting double digits in all but two games. He had a 27-point outing in the season opener against Edison and a career-best 31 points against SLAM Miami just a few weeks later. A highly athletic and versatile guard, his length is a problem for teams as a driver,otuside shooter and shot blocker defensively. The right handed Miles can dribble with both hands with ease and that is a special thing. His upside is endless.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="962399" first="Tyler" last="Williams"] doubles as a quarterback for Winter Haven football and a point guard for the basketball team. The 6'3" athlete is quick from side to side, long and a very talented young player. He showed promise as a shooter for Winter Haven from outside and as an attacker. He was allowed to handle the rock often and still has kinks to work through, but he's scrappy defensively, tough on offense and shifty enough to get past almost anybody. Williams has some serious untapped potential.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="812618" first="Jayven" last="Cofer"] arrived from Texas alongside his brother [player_tooltip player_id="684398" first="Jimel" last="Cofer"]. Jayven is a 6'2" freshman guard who played a key role for Schoolhouse Prep in its state semifinal run. He averaged 7.3 PPG and had some nice performances earlier which included three straight 13 point games and then a 16-point game later in the season against Calvary Christian. Cofer (see picture) is already developed in his upper body and is someone who can push the tempo. He plays with others and can attack the rim often.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="962384" first="Anthony" last="Robinson"] is a right handed shooter and finisher, but he dribbles very well with both hands. The 5'10" guard already has offers from Stetson and Alabama State and is a prime candidate to fly up these rankings very soon. He is an impressive outside shooter, who scoots back to hit 3's in defenders faces or when open. He can speed down the floor for a mid-range, high IQ pass or lay-in. Robinson pops on tape and as he gets taller and fills out his body, his stock will flourish. </p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="709247" first="PJ" last="Paulk"] is a 6'2" athlete who is a standout wide receiver for Miami Northwestern football and a true tough nosed point man for the basketball team. He can hurt you with his pure strength and will to get by you and score at the rim. Paulk controls the floor well and is a leader by example. He keeps everything calm around him and makes everyone better. Whatever sport he chooses, the sky is the limit for Paulk with his pure ability to make plays.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="812622" first="Jalen" last="Debose"] is a true playmaker whether he has the ball in his hands or not. The 6' guard averaged 10.6 PPG and proved his worth from deep, where he thrives shooting from the corners. A pesky defender, Debose seems to always find openings in defenses and he can get to the rim with his quick feet and lay it in and finish. In nine of his first 11 games as a freshman, he reached double digits which included a 22-point game against Lake Minneola where he shot 9-of-13 from the field. Debose is a major athlete in the works.</p> <p><em>ICYMI</em>: </p> <p><strong>2021</strong></p> <h6><a href="https://prephoops.com/2020/03/2021-florida-rankings-update-2/">The New Top 10 in the 2021 Class</a></h6> <h6><a href="https://prephoops.com/2020/03/2021-rankings-crafty-playmakers/">2021 Rankings: Crafty Playmakers</a></h6> <h6><a href="https://prephoops.com/2020/03/2021-rankings-rising-prospects/">2021 Rankings: Rising Prospects</a></h6> <h6><a href="https://prephoops.com/2020/03/2021-rankings-talented-bigs/">2021 Rankings: Talented Bigs</a></h6> <h6><a href="https://prephoops.com/2020/03/2021-rankings-3-point-specialists/">2021 Rankings: 3-Point Specialists</a></h6> <h6><a href="https://prephoops.com/2020/03/2021-rankings-underrated-talents/">2021 Rankings: Underrated Talents</a></h6> <p><strong>2022</strong></p> <h6><a href="https://prephoops.com/2020/03/2022-rankings-the-new-top-10/">2022 Rankings: The New Top 10</a></h6> <h6><a href="https://prephoops.com/2020/03/2022-rankings-crafty-playmakers/">2022 Rankings: Crafty Playmakers</a></h6> <h6><a href="https://prephoops.com/2020/04/2022-rankings-rising-prospects/">2022 Rankings: Rising Prospects</a></h6> <h6><a href="https://prephoops.com/2020/04/2022-rankings-talented-bigs/">2022 Rankings: Talented Bigs</a></h6> <h6><a href="https://prephoops.com/2020/04/2022-rankings-3-point-specialists/">2022 Rankings: 3-Point Specialists</a></h6>
