Big Shots Elite 2023 Guard Isaiah Washington Isaiah Washington 6'5" | SG Winston-Salem Christian | 2024 State NC : He led his team in scoring averaging just under 19 Points a game, but what was most impressive was how well he played without the ball in his hands. He didn’t just stand in one spot but instead was moving to make himself available and crashed the boards for rebounds at a high rate.
Flight 22 2021 Guard Charlie Miller: He picked up right where he left off in the previous weeks, catching fire from three point land. He doesn’t need much time to get his shot off and is a very efficient shooter. Obviously he’s the son of a former college coach and you can see this through his IQ for the game, he doesn’t force many plays and continues to get better every time we see him.
Team Hoopstate 2023 Guard Kevin Conception: You have to love the intensity and confidence that he brings to the court. He doesn’t back down from any challenge and is a lot stronger than he initially looks. One of the teams leading scorers at 12 PPG, he scored by using his speed to get into the paint and finishing plays through contact.
Big Shots Elite 2023 Casian Richard: A quick guard that knows how to break down his defender and make the correct play. Whether it’s dropping off a pass to a teammates or pulling up for a smooth jump-shot, we saw a little bit of everything from him.
Crusaders Basketball 2021 Guard Gavin Gillikin Gavin Gillikin 5'11" | CG West Carteret | 2021 State NC : We already know that he can shoot the ball well but we really wanted to see his playmaking abilities and that’s exactly what he showed. He looks comfortable running the show, getting his team into their sets and make quite a few nice passes to teammates for buckets.
Crusaders Basketball 2022 Guard Tychaun Clay Tychaun Clay 5'10" | PG Hunt | 2022 NC : One of the better young guards out of the wilson area, he is slowly but surely catching the attention of more media members with his play. He gets after it on the defensive end but also showed how well he can score the ball, going for a game high of 27 Points in one of their matchups.
